Gene information for GPR112 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID139378
Official gene symbolGPR112
Full nameG protein-coupled receptor 112
Aliases,DKFZp781E1948,PGR17,RP1-299I16,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a G-protein coupled receptor belonging to a large family of diverse integral membrane proteins that participate in various physiological functions. Members of this superfamily are characterized by a signature 7-transmembrane domain motif. The ligand for this family member is unknown, and it is therefore an orphan receptor. This receptor is known to be expressed in normal enterochromaffin cells and in gastrointestinal neuroendocrine carcinoma cells, and it is therefore considered to be a novel biomarker or target for immunotherapy.
