Human Gene RXFP1 (ENST00000307765.10) from GENCODE V44
Description: Homo sapiens relaxin family peptide receptor 1 (RXFP1), transcript variant 12, non-coding RNA. (from RefSeq NR_045583) RefSeq Summary (NM_021634): This gene encodes a member of the leucine-rich repeat-containing subgroup of the G protein-coupled 7-transmembrane receptor superfamily. The encoded protein plays a critical role in sperm motility, pregnancy and parturition as a receptor for the protein hormone relaxin. Decreased expression of this gene may play a role in endometriosis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.

Gencode Transcript: ENST00000307765.10 Gencode Gene: ENSG00000171509.16 Transcript (Including UTRs) Position: hg38 chr4:158,521,882-158,653,372 Size: 131,491 Total Exon Count: 18 Strand: + Coding Region Position: hg38 chr4:158,521,977-158,652,055 Size: 130,079 Coding Exon Count: 18
ID:RXFP1_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Relaxin receptor 1; AltName: Full=Leucine-rich repeat-containing G-protein coupled receptor 7; AltName: Full=Relaxin family peptide receptor 1; FUNCTION: Receptor for relaxins. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins leading to stimulation of adenylate cyclase and an increase of cAMP. Binding of the ligand may also activate a tyrosine kinase pathway that inhibits the activity of a phosphodiesterase that degrades cAMP. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in the brain, kidney, testis, placenta, uterus, ovary, adrenal, prostate, skin and heart. Not detected in spleen. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 LDL-receptor class A domain. SIMILARITY: Contains 9 LRR (leucine-rich) repeats. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 LRRNT domain.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
