| Description | Relaxin receptor 2 (Relaxin family peptide receptor 2) (Leucine-richrepeat-containing G-protein coupled receptor 8) (G-protein coupledreceptor affecting testicular descent) (G-protein coupled receptor106). |
| Source organism | Homo sapiens (Human) |
| Taxonomical Classification | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi;Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini;Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. |
| Subcellular location | Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein |
| Developmental Stage | N/A |
| Similarity | Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. Contains 1 LDL-receptor class A domain. Contains 10 LRR (leucine-rich) repeats. |
| Tissue Specificity | Expressed mainly in the brain, kidney, muscle, testis, thyroid, uterus, peripheral blood cells and bone marrow. |
| Post translational modification | N/A |
| Function | Receptor for relaxin. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins leading to stimulation of adenylate cyclase and an increase of cAMP. May also be a receptor for Leydig insulin-like peptide (INSL3). |
