Protein name Relaxin receptor 2 (G-protein coupled receptor 106) (G-protein coupled receptor affecting testicular descent) (Leucine-rich repeat-containing G-protein coupled receptor 8) (Relaxin family peptide receptor 2)
Protein function Receptor for relaxin. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins leading to stimulation of adenylate cyclase and an increase of cAMP. May also be a receptor for Leydig insulin-like peptide (INSL3).
