Background: Gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) regulates numerous functions of the gastrointestinal and central nervous systems, including release of gastrointestinal hormones, smooth muscle cell contraction, and epithelial cell proliferation and is a potent mitogen for neoplastic tissues. The effects of GRP are mediated through the gastrin-releasing peptide receptor. This receptor is a glycosylated, 7-transmembrane G-protein coupled receptor that activates the phospholipase C signaling pathway. The receptor is aberrantly expressed in numerous cancers such as those of the lung, colon, and prostate. An individual with autism and multiple exostoses was found to have a balanced translocation between chromosome 8 and a chromosome X breakpoint located within the gastrin-releasing peptide receptor gene.

Function:function:Receptor for gastrin releasing peptide (GRP). This receptor mediates its action by association with G proteins that activate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system.,similarity:Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.,tissue specificity:Highly expressed in pancreas. Also expressed in stomach, adrenal cortex and brain.,
Subcellular Location:Cell membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein .
Expression:Highly expressed in pancreas (PubMed:11245983). Also expressed in stomach, adrenal cortex and brain (PubMed:11245983). In brain, expressed in cells throughout the cortex (PubMed:34610277).
