Summary: Enables angiotensin type II receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to dexamethasone stimulus; positive regulation of branching involved in ureteric bud morphogenesis; and regulation of secretion. Located in perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Used to study chronic kidney disease; congenital diaphragmatic hernia; glomerulonephritis (multiple); hypertension (multiple); and meconium aspiration syndrome. Biomarker of several diseases, including asthma; congestive heart failure; glomerulosclerosis (multiple); hypertension; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in IgA glomerulonephritis; end stage renal disease; hypoglycemia; intellectual disability; and vesicoureteral reflux. Orthologous to human AGTR2 (angiotensin II receptor type 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
