Function:function:This is a receptor for VIP. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylyl cyclase. The affinity is VIP = PACAP-27 > PACAP-38.,similarity:Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 2 family.,tissue specificity:In lung, HT29 colonic epithelial cells, Raji B-lymphoblasts. Lesser extent in brain, heart, kidney, liver and placenta. Not expressed in CD4+ or CD8+ T-cells. Expressed in the T-cell lines HARRIS, HuT 78, Jurkat and Tsup-1, but not in the T-cell lines PEER, MOLT-4, HSB and YT.,
Subcellular Location:plasma membrane,integral component of plasma membrane,integral component of membrane,receptor complex,
Expression:Intestine,Liver,Lung,
Background:vasoactive intestinal peptide receptor 1(VIPR1) Homo sapiens This gene encodes a receptor for vasoactive intestinal peptide, a small neuropeptide. Vasoactive intestinal peptide is involved in smooth muscle relaxation, exocrine and endocrine secretion, and water and ion flux in lung and intestinal epithelia. Its actions are effected through integral membrane receptors associated with a guanine nucleotide binding protein which activates adenylate cyclase. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011],
