About TACR2

Cytogenetic location: 10q22.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 10:69,403,903-69,416,918 (from NCBI)

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 200 orthologues and 33 paralogues. Biased expression in esophagus (RPKM 8.8), endometrium (RPKM 7.3) and 9 other tissues.

Summary

This gene belongs to a family of genes that function as receptors for tachykinins. Receptor affinities are specified by variations in the 5'-end of the sequence. The receptors belonging to this family are characterized by interactions with G proteins and 7 hydrophobic transmembrane regions. This gene encodes the receptor for the tachykinin neuropeptide substance K, also referred to as neurokinin A. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
