Summary: Enables transmembrane signaling receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including metanephric nephron development; regulation of gene expression; and regulation of signal transduction. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including epithelial cell proliferation involved in renal tubule morphogenesis; intestinal stem cell homeostasis; and male genitalia development. Located in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; eye; integumental system; metanephros; and telencephalon. Used to study glaucoma. Orthologous to human LGR4 (leucine rich repeat containing G protein-coupled 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.
