GPR64
Orphan receptor. Could be involved in a signal transduction pathway controlling epididymal function and male fertility. May regulate fluid exchange within epididymis. Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 2 family. Adhesion G-protein coupled receptor (ADGR) subfamily. Epididymis-specific expression (at protein level). Both subunits are associated with apical membranes of efferent ductule and proximal epididymal duct epithelia. Mainly expressed in the nonciliated principal cells of the proximal excurrent ducts. Specifically over-expressed in Ewing sarcomas but also up-regulated in a number of carcinomas derived from prostate, kidney or lung. 10 alternatively spliced human isoforms have been reported. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
