GPR55 - G protein-coupled receptor 55 Gene

Also Known as LPIR1

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 9290

About GPR55

Cytogenetic location: 2q37.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 2:230,907,328-230,961,201 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 182 orthologues and 16 paralogues. Biased expression in testis (RPKM 2.7), spleen (RPKM 2.0) and 13 other tissues.

Summary

This gene belongs to the G-protein-coupled receptor superfamily. The encoded integral membrane protein is a likely Cannabinoid Receptor. It may be involved in several physiological and pathological processes by activating a variety of signal transduction pathways. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013]
