GRPR - gastrin releasing peptide receptor Gene
Also Known as BB2; BB2R; BRS2
Species: Homo sapiens
About GRPR
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 254 orthologues and 15 paralogues. Biased expression in pancreas (RPKM 2.4), stomach (RPKM 0.7) and 3 other tissues.
Summary
Gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) regulates numerous functions of the gastrointestinal and central nervous systems, including release of gastrointestinal Hormones, smooth muscle cell contraction, and epithelial cell proliferation and is a potent mitogen for neoplastic tissues. The effects of GRP are mediated through the gastrin-releasing peptide receptor. This receptor is a glycosylated, 7-transmembrane G-protein coupled receptor that activates the Phospholipase C signaling pathway. The receptor is aberrantly expressed in numerous cancers such as those of the lung, colon, and prostate. An individual with autism and multiple exostoses was found to have a balanced translocation between chromosome 8 and a chromosome X breakpoint located within the gastrin-releasing peptide receptor gene.
