CALCR - calcitonin receptor Gene
Also Known as CRT; CTR; CT-R; CTR1
Species: Homo sapiens
About CALCR
This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 218 orthologues, 42 paralogues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Low expression observed in reference dataset.
Summary
This gene encodes a high affinity receptor for the peptide hormone Calcitonin and belongs to a subfamily of seven transmembrane-spanning G protein-coupled receptors. The encoded protein is involved in maintaining calcium homeostasis and in regulating osteoclast-mediated bone resorption. Polymorphisms in this gene have been associated with variations in bone mineral density and onset of osteoporosis. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
