About Prlh

Summary

Enables neuropeptide hormone activity and prolactin-releasing peptide receptor binding activity. Involved in G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway and feeding behavior. Acts upstream of or within reduction of food intake in response to dietary excess. Located in cytoplasm. Used to study obesity. Orthologous to human PRLH (Prolactin releasing hormone).
