GPR162 CDNA Clones

GPR162, also known as Probable G-protein coupled receptor 162, has a 588 amino acid long isoform that is 64 kDa and a short 304 amino acid isoform that is 33 kDa, located in the cell membrane, mainly expressed in the brain; acts as an orphan receptor. This protein is being studied for its involvement in St. Louis encephalitis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, lymphoma, asphyxia neonatorum, dental caries, spotted fever, typhus, lyme disease, toxic shock syndrome, cystic fibrosis, purpura, pancreatic cancer, and pancreatitis. It has been inferred that GPR162 protein is involved in G-protein coupled receptor signaling pathway.
