Summary: Enables G protein-coupled receptor activity. Involved in regulation of testosterone biosynthetic process and response to amino acid. Is active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including femur; liver; male reproductive gland or organ; musculature; and spleen. Orthologous to human GPRC6A (G protein-coupled receptor class C group 6 member A). [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.
