Background
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family, and functions as a receptor for angiotensin II. It is an intergral membrane protein that is highly expressed in fetus, but scantily in adult tissues, except brain, adrenal medulla, and atretic ovary. This receptor has been shown to mediate programmed cell death and this apoptotic function may play an important role in developmental biology and pathophysiology. Mutations in this gene are been associated with X-linked mental retardation. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010],
Function

Cooperates with MTUS1 to inhibit ERK2 activation and cell proliferation.,similarity:Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.,subunit:Interacts with MTUS1.,tissue specificity:In adult, highly expressed in myometrium with lower levels in adrenal gland and fallopian tube. Very highly expressed in fetal kidney and intestine.,
