Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 5618

About PRLR

Cytogenetic location: 5p13.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 5:35,048,756-35,230,487 (from NCBI)

This gene has 20 transcripts (splice variants), 269 orthologues, 23 paralogues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Biased expression in placenta (RPKM 18.9), endometrium (RPKM 11.6) and 8 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a receptor for the anterior pituitary hormone, Prolactin, and belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family. Prolactin-dependent signaling occurs as the result of ligand-induced dimerization of the Prolactin receptor. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different membrane-bound and soluble isoforms have been described for this gene, which may function to modulate the endocrine and autocrine effects of Prolactin in normal tissue and Cancer.
