Description
GPR107 encodes a member of the G protein-coupled receptor family, characterized by seven transmembrane domains. The protein is localized to intracellular membranes and is involved in vesicle trafficking, Golgi function, and endosomal sorting. GPR107 has been implicated in tumor suppression and cellular stress responses.
