Gene information for GALR1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID2587
Official gene symbolGALR1
Full namegalanin receptor 1
Aliases,GALNR,GALNR1,
Gene summaryThe neuropeptide galanin elicits a range of biological effects by interaction with specific G-protein-coupled receptors. Galanin receptors are seven-transmembrane proteins shown to activate a variety of intracellular second-messenger pathways. GALR1 inhibits adenylyl cyclase via a G protein of the Gi/Go family. GALR1 is widely expressed in the brain and spinal cord, as well as in peripheral sites such as the small intestine and heart. [provided by RefSeq]
