GPR139 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

This gene encodes a member of the rhodopsin family of G-protein-coupled receptors. The encoded protein is almost exclusively expressed in the central nervous system. L-tryptophan and L-phenylalanine may act as the physiologic ligands of the encoded protein. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016], function:Orphan receptor. Seems to act through a G (q/11) -mediated pathway., similarity:Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family., tissue specificity:Expressed almost exclusively in the brain. Detected at very low levels in the peripheral tissues.
