Parathyroid Hormone Receptor 1 Antibody / PTH1R

Parathyroid hormone/parathyroid hormone-related peptide receptor, also known as PTH1R, PTHR, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PTH1R gene. PTHR is a member of a family of G protein-coupled receptors. PTHR gene was mapped to the vicinity of the 3p21.3-p21.2 boundary by PCR analysis of human/rodent somatic cell hybrid panels using oligonucleotide primers designed to amplify a portion of the gene from genomic DNA. This is a receptor for parathyroid hormone and for parathyroid hormone-related peptide. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylyl cyclase and also a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. PTH1R functions as a receptor for parathyroid hormone and for parathyroid hormone-related protein.
