Function |
Orphan receptor. Probably involved in the function of nociceptive neurons. May regulate nociceptor function and/or development, including the sensation or modulation of pain. Potently activated by enkephalins (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Uniquely localized in a subset of small dorsal root and trigeminal sensory neurons. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11850634}.
