Description
Predicted to have cytokine binding activity; peptide hormone binding activity; and prolactin receptor activity. Predicted to localize to external side of plasma membrane and receptor complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Laron syndrome; familial hypercholesterolemia; isolated growth hormone deficiency; osteoarthritis; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Is expressed in several structures, including muscle; nervous system; notochord; pleuroperitoneal region; and yolk. Orthologous to human GHR (growth hormone receptor).
