Details for receptor: neurokinin-2 receptor

EndoNet ID: ENR01182

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:

Synonyms

  • neurokinin-2 receptor
  • neurokinin A receptor
  • NK-2 receptor
  • substance-K receptor
  • SKR
  • NK-2R
  • tachykinin receptor 2
  • neurokinin 2 receptor

General information

  • This is a receptor for the tachykinin neuropeptide substance K (neurokinin A). [1]
  • It is associated with G proteins that activate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. [1]
  • The rank order of affinity of this receptor to tachykinins is: substance K > neuromedin-K > substance P. [1]
  • Since neuropeptide K and neuropeptide gamma are extended versions of neurokinin A, they bind to the same receptor.
