Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Enables pancreatic polypeptide receptor activity and peptide YY receptor activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including feeding behavior; glucose metabolic process; and sensory perception of pain. Predicted to be located in axon and synaptic vesicle. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including glutamatergic synapse; neuronal dense core vesicle; and presynaptic membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including genitourinary system; immune system; liver; lung; and nervous system. Used to study obesity. Orthologous to human NPY1R (neuropeptide Y receptor Y1).
