Comments
Comment typeDescription
FunctionThis is a receptor for glucagon-like peptide 1. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylyl cyclase.
PtmN-glycosylation enhances cell surface expression and lengthens receptor half-life by preventing degradation in the ER. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22412906}.
SimilarityBelongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 2 family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationCell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
SubunitMay form homodimers and heterodimers with GIPR. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18287102, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22412906}.
