Description | Growth hormone secretagogue receptor type 1 (GHS-R) (GH-releasingpeptide receptor) (GHRP) (Ghrelin receptor). |
Source organism | Homo sapiens (Human) |
Taxonomical Classification | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi;Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini;Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. |
Subcellular location | Membrane; multi-pass membrane protein |
Developmental Stage | N/A |
Similarity | Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. |
Tissue Specificity | Pituitary and hypothalamus. |
Post translational modification | N/A |
Function | Receptor for ghrelin, coupled to G-alpha-11 proteins. Stimulates growth hormone secretion. Binds also other growth hormone releasing peptides (GHRP) (e.g. Met-enkephalin and GHRP-6) as well as non-peptide, low molecular weight secretagogues (e.g. L-692,429, MK-0677, adenosine). |
