Description
Product Characteristics: The protein encoded by this gene acts as receptor for arginine vasopressin. This receptor belongs to the subfamily of G-protein coupled receptors which includes AVPR1B, V2R and OXT receptors. Its activity is mediated by G proteins which stimulate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. The receptor mediates cell contraction and proliferation, platelet aggregation, release of coagulation factor and glycogenolysis.,AVPR1A,AVPR V1a,AVPR1,V1aR,AVPRV1a,Signal Transduction,G protein signaling,G-Protein-Coupled Receptors(GPCR),Neuroscience,AVPR1A
