Other Name:Vasopressin V1b receptor (V1bR;AVPR V1b;AVPR V3;Antidiuretic hormone receptor 1b;Vasopressin V3 receptor)
Function:function:Receptor for arginine vasopressin. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate a phosphatidyl-inositol-calcium second messenger system.,similarity:Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.,
Subcellular Location:Cell membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein .
Expression:Lung carcinoma,Pituitary,
Background: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 AVPR1A, V2R and OXT receptors. Its activity is mediated by G proteins which stimulate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. The receptor is primarily located in the anterior pituitary, where it stimulates ACTH release. It is expressed at high levels in ACTH-secreting pituitary adenomas as well as in bronchial carcinoids responsible for the ectopic ACTH syndrome. A spliced antisense transcript of this gene has been reported but its function is not known. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],
