Vasopressin V2 receptor

UniProt P30518 Organism Homo sapiens Gene ADHR, AVPR2, DIR, DIR3, V2R

Also known as: ADHR, AVPR2, DIR, DIR3, V2R

Function

G protein-coupled receptor for arginine vasopressin, an antidiuretic that promotes renal water reabsorption. Ligand binding causes a conformation change that triggers signaling via guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) and modulates the activity of downstream effectors, such as adenylate cyclase (cAMP). AVPR2 is coupled to G(s) G alpha proteins and mediates activation of adenylate cyclase activity.
