Vipr2 - vasoactive intestinal peptide receptor 2 Gene

Also known as Vip2; VPAC2; VPAC2R

About Vipr2

Summary

Predicted to enable G protein-coupled peptide receptor activity; peptide hormone binding activity; and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in activation of Adenylate Cyclase activity; adenylate cyclase-modulating G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; and negative regulation of smooth muscle cell proliferation. Predicted to act upstream of or within G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in cilium. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; respiratory system; retina; and skeleton. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in schizophrenia 16. Orthologous to human VIPR2 (vasoactive intestinal peptide receptor 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
