Acts upstream of or within G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway and negative regulation of angiogenesis. Predicted to be located in cell body fiber; perikaryon; and varicosity. Predicted to be active in axon terminus; dendrite; and plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; genitourinary system; gut; hemolymphoid system gland; and integumental system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in asthma. Orthologous to human CRHR2 (corticotropin releasing hormone receptor 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

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.
