neuropeptide Y receptor Y5 |
| Gene Summary |
Enables pancreatic polypeptide receptor activity and peptide YY receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including generation of ovulation cycle rhythm; negative regulation of GABAergic synaptic transmission; and regulation of acute inflammatory response. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including GABA-ergic synapse; neuron projection; and presynapse. Used to study absence epilepsy and hyperinsulinism. Biomarker of coronary restenosis; obesity; and prolactinoma. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in lipid metabolism disorder and obesity. Orthologous to human NPY5R (neuropeptide Y receptor Y5). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jun 2025] |
