Background: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the 7 transmembrane-spanning G protein-coupled receptor family, and functions as a receptor for the endogenous, opioid-related neuropeptide, nociceptin/orphanin FQ. This receptor-ligand system modulates a variety of biological functions and neurobehavior, including stress responses and anxiety behavior, learning and memory, locomotor activity, and inflammatory and immune responses. A promoter region between this gene and the 5'-adjacent RGS19 (regulator of G-protein signaling 19) gene on the opposite strand functions bi-directionally as a core-promoter for both genes, suggesting co-operative transcriptional regulation of these two functionally related genes. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene. A recent study provided evidence for translational readthrough in this gene and expression of an ad
Function:function:Receptor for the neuropeptide nociceptin/orphanin FQ. Has a potential role in modulating a number of brain functions, including instinctive behaviors and emotions. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which inhibits adenylyl cyclase.,induction:By phytohemagglutinin (PHA).,similarity:Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.,
Subcellular Location:Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cytoplasmic vesicle. Ligand binding leads to receptor internalization into cytoplasmic vesicles, decreasing the amount of available receptor at the cell surface. Internalization requires phosphorylation at Ser-363. Can recycle to the cell membrane.
Expression:Detected in blood leukocytes.
