Description

GPR150 is an orphan G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) with no known endogenous ligand. It is primarily expressed in the brain and testis, and its function remains under investigation. The gene is located on chromosome 5q31.3 and encodes a 7-transmembrane domain receptor. GPR150 may be involved in neuroendocrine signaling and has been implicated in certain cancers and neurological disorders based on expression and mutation data.

Protein Summary

GPR150 is a 7-transmembrane domain orphan GPCR of 374 amino acids. It shares homology with other class A rhodopsin-like GPCRs. The protein is predicted to couple to G proteins, but its specific signaling cascade and ligand remain unknown. Structural studies suggest a conserved DRY motif and potential palmitoylation sites.
