Also known as: CaR; Gprc2a
Summary: Predicted to enable several functions, including integrin binding activity; protein homodimerization activity; and transmembrane transporter binding activity. Involved in regulation of presynaptic membrane potential. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of ATP-dependent activity; positive regulation of gene expression; and regulation of calcium ion transport. Is active in glutamatergic synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial pouch; central nervous system; lung; metanephros; and superior cervical ganglion. Used to study autosomal dominant hypocalcemia 1; familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia 1; and hyperparathyroidism. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including autosomal dominant hypocalcemia (multiple); hypercalcemia (multiple); hyperparathyroidism (multiple); idiopathic generalized epilepsy 8; and nephrolithiasis (multiple). Orthologous to human CASR (calcium sensing receptor). [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.
