|
| Function |
Receptor for N-arachidonyl glycine. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which inhibit adenylyl cyclase. May contribute to regulation of the immune system. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16844083}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Most abundant in testis and spleen. Highly expressed in CD4 and CD8-positive T-cells as well as CD19-positive B-cells. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16844083}.
