EndoNet ID: ENR00920

To link to the content of EndoNet use the EndoNet ID that is given on the detail pages in the format ENX0000, where X is a place holder for the type of the component (e. g. R for receptor or C for anatomical structure).
As URL for the linking append this ID to the detail page for this type of component.
For an hormone that would be: 

http://endonet.bioinf.med.uni-goettingen.de/hormone/ENH00000

It is also possible to use the search of EndoNet to link to the right detail page. The URL should look like 

http://endonet.bioinf.med.uni-goettingen.de/search/ENC00000
If the search pattern is unambigious the user is directed to the corresponding detail page.

Synonyms

  • sst(3)
  • sst3
  • somatostatin receptor 3

General information

  • SSTR3 was detected in occasional alpha-cells, and SSTR4 was absent. [1]
  • SSTR3 and SSTR4 were relatively poorly expressed in beta cells. [1]
  • SSTR1-3 were colocalized in only a few delta-cells, and SSTR4 was absent. [1]
  • Belongs to the seven transmembrane domain receptor family. [2]
