About Crhr1

Primary_assembly 10: 89,040,203-89,083,481 forward strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026983.1

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 239 orthologues, 42 paralogues and is associated with 29 phenotypes. Restricted expression toward (RPKM 31.6).

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the G-protein coupled receptor family. The encoded protein is a receptor for corticotropin-releasing factor (CRH) and urocortin (UCN). The interaction of this protein with CRH and UCN triggers G-protein coupled signaling. This protein plays a pivotal role in mediating the CRH-elicited effects in depression and anxiety. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2014]
