Summary: Predicted to enable neuropeptide binding activity and somatostatin receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including neuropeptide signaling pathway; positive regulation of arachidonate secretion; and regulation of signal transduction. Predicted to be active in neuron projection and plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including genitourinary system; gut; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human SSTR4 (somatostatin receptor 4). [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.
