Summary: Predicted to enable vasopressin receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of urine volume; positive regulation of systemic arterial blood pressure; and telencephalon development. Predicted to be located in endocytic vesicle; endosome; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Used to study hypertension. Biomarker of ureteral obstruction. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in X-linked nephrogenic diabetes insipidus; nephrogenic diabetes insipidus; and nephrogenic syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis. Orthologous to human AVPR2 (arginine vasopressin receptor 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
Expression: Biased expression in Kidney (RPKM 45.6), Thymus (RPKM 40.9) and 7 other tissues See more

Site-1 protease-derived (S1P-derived) soluble (pro)renin receptor (sPRR) participates in regulation of fluid homeostasis via targeting V2R. In cultured rat inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD) cells, AVP-induced V2R expression was blunted by a PRR antagonist, PRO20; a PRR-neutralizing antibody; or a S1P inhibitor, PF-429242. In parallel, sPRR release was increased by AVP and reduced by PF-429242.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
