PRLHR

protein-coding

prolactin releasing hormone receptor, the group of Peptide receptors

Gene summary

Predicted to enable neuropeptide receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in feeding behavior and neuropeptide signaling pathway. Predicted to act upstream of or within G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; adult feeding behavior; and hormone metabolic process. Located in cilium. Implicated in hypertension.

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_004248.3. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.
