Tachykinin Receptor-1 Definition
Encoded by human TACR1 Gene (GPCR1 Family), 407-aa 46-kDa Tachykinin Receptor 1 is a receptor for the tachykinin neuropeptide substance P and an integral membrane protein with 7 hydrophobic transmembrane regions that probably associates with G proteins that activate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. TACR1 is also involved in mediation of phosphatidylinositol metabolism of substance P. Receptor affinity for tachykinins is: substance P, substance K, neuromedin K. (NCI)
