About GALR2

Summary

Enables Galanin receptor activity and neuropeptide binding activity. Involved in several processes, including adenylate cyclase-activating G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; inositol phosphate metabolic process; and positive regulation of cytosolic calcium ion concentration. Located in plasma membrane. Orthologous to human GALR2 (Galanin receptor 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
