About Ghrhr

Summary

Enables growth hormone-releasing hormone receptor activity and peptide hormone binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of cell population proliferation. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including gland development; positive regulation of growth hormone secretion; and regulation of signal transduction. Located in plasma membrane. Is integral component of membrane. Is expressed in alimentary system; brain; metanephros; and spinal cord. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in isolated growth hormone deficiency. Orthologous to human GHRHR (growth hormone releasing hormone receptor). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
