GPR101

Protein-coding gene in humans

Probable G-protein coupled receptor 101 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the GPR101 gene.[5][6]

Quick Facts Identifiers, Aliases ...

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs, or GPRs) contain 7 transmembrane domains and transduce extracellular signals through heterotrimeric G proteins.[6]

Clinical significance

A duplication event in GPR101 is implicated in cases of gigantism and acromegaly.[7]
