Gene content
Symbol	GPRC5A ( by HUGO)
Name	G Protein-Coupled Receptor, Class C, Group 5, Member A
Category	Tumor suppressor gene
Alias	G Protein-Coupled Receptor Class C Group 5 Member A RAI3 GPCR5A RAIG1 G Protein-Coupled Receptor Family C Group 5 Member A Retinoic Acid Induced 3 Orphan G-Protein-Coupling Receptor PEIG-1 Retinoic Acid-Induced Gene 1 Protein RAIG-1 G-Protein Coupled Receptor Family C Group 5 Member A Retinoic Acid Responsive Retinoic Acid-Induced Protein 3
Cytogenetic band	NCBI: 12p13-p12.3    Ensembl: 12p13.1
Protein information	RAI3_HUMAN Size: 357 amino acids Mass: 40251 Da Tissue specificity: Expressed at high level in fetal and adult lung tissues. Constitutively expressed in fetal kidney and adult placenta, kidney, prostate, testis, ovary, small intestine, colon, stomach, and spinal chord at low to moderate levels. Not detectable in fetal hea Function: UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot Summary: RAI3_HUMAN, Q8NFJ5 Function: Unknown. This G-protein coupled receptor could be involved in modulating differentiation and maintaining homeostasis of epithelial cells. The comparable expression level in fetal lung and kidney with adult tissues suggests a possible role in embryonic development and maturation of these organs. This retinoic acid-inducible GPCR provide evidence for a possible interaction between retinoid and G-protein signaling pathways Similarity: Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 3 family [IMAGE]
