Background

Official Gene Symbol: CRHR2 Gen Bank Accession Number: NP_001874 Gene ID: 1395 (Human) Gene Map Locus: 7p15.1 (Human) CRHR2 is a novel member of Secretin-family-GPCR proteins that functions as a functional receptor for CRF. It is expressed as 3 isoforms; alpha, beta and gamma. These isoforms primarily differ in their N-terminal sequence and tissue distribution. Apart from CRF, other ligands of CRHR2 include UcnI, UcnII and UcnIII. CRHR2 is involved in stress responses, cardiovascular function and gastric motility. Studies on CRHR2 deficient mice suggested a central anxiolytic effect of CRHR2. Northern Blot analysis detects CRHR2 expression in brain, hypothalamus, heart, GI, lung, skeletal muscle and vasculature.
