Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 6754
Gene name Somatostatin receptor 4
Gene symbol SSTR4
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
SS-4-RSS4-RSS4RSST4
Chromosome 20
Chromosome location 20p11.21
Summary Somatostatin acts at many sites to inhibit the release of many hormones and other secretory proteins. The biologic effects of somatostatin are probably mediated by a family of G protein-coupled receptors that are expressed in a tissue-specific manner. S

Protein name Somatostatin receptor type 4 (SS-4-R) (SS4-R) (SS4R) (SST4)
Protein function Receptor for somatostatin-14. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which inhibits adenylyl cyclase. It is functionally coupled not only to inhibition of adenylate cyclase, but also to activation of both arachidonate release an
