Description
Product Characteristics:
This is a receptor for secretin. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylyl cyclase.
Subcellular location: Cell membrane
Synonyms: SR, Secretin receptor, SCT-R, SCTR
Target Information: The protein encoded by this gene is a G protein-coupled receptor and belongs to the glucagon-VIP-secretin receptor family. It binds secretin which is the most potent regulator of pancreatic bicarbonate, electrolyte and volume secretion. Secretin and its receptor are suggested to be involved in pancreatic cancer and autism. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
