Background

GALR2 (Galanin Receptor 2) is one of three 54-60 kDa G-protein coupled multipass transmembrane receptors for the Galanin neuropeptide. Galanin is co-expressed with and modulates noradrenaline and serotonin systems. GALR2 is thought to modulate growth and apoptosis. Unlike GALR and GALR3, it is thought to be anti-depressive. GALR2 mRNA is found mainly in the central nervous system (except for cerebral cortex), but also in intestine, heart, kidney, liver and many cancers. The combined extracellular domains of human GALR2 share 82% and 86% amino acid identity with mouse and rat GALR2, respectively.
