Gene information for PTH2R (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID5746
Official gene symbolPTH2R
Full nameparathyroid hormone 2 receptor
Aliases,PTHR2,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a member of the G-protein coupled receptor family 2. This protein is a receptor for parathyroid hormone (PTH). This receptor is more selective in ligand recognition and has a more specific tissue distribution compared to parathyroid hormone receptor 1 (PTHR1). It is activated only by PTH and not by parathyroid hormone-like hormone (PTHLH) and is particularly abundant in brain and pancreas. [provided by RefSeq]
