QuickView for AdipoR2 (gene)


Gene Symbol:
ADIPOR2 Homo sapiens Homo sapiens
Full name:
adiponectin receptor 2
Synonyms:
ACDCR2, PAQR2, adiponectin receptor protein 2, progestin and adipoQ receptor family member 2, progestin and adipoQ receptor family member II
Genomic Location:
Chr 12: 1670508-1768106
Description:
The adiponectin receptors, ADIPOR1 (MIM 607945) and ADIPOR2, serve as receptors for globular and full-length adiponectin (MIM 605441) and mediate increased AMPK (see MIM 602739) and PPAR-alpha (PPARA; MIM 170998) ligand activities, as well as fatty acid oxidation and glucose uptake by adiponectin (Yamauchi et al., 2003 [PubMed 12802337]).
