Background
This gene, which is upregulated in human umbilical vein endothelial cells, encodes a G protein-coupled receptor. Variations in this gene can affect a person's stature. Multiple transcript variants encoding different proteins have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009],function:Orphan receptor.,polymorphism:Genetic variations in GPR126 influences stature as a quantitative trait (STQTL) [MIM:606255]. Adult height is an easily observable and highly heritable complex continuous trait. Because of this, it is a model trait for studying genetic influence on quantitative traits.,similarity:Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 2 family. LN-TM7 subfamily.,similarity:Contains 1 CUB domain.,similarity:Contains 1 GPS domain.,similarity:Contains 1 pentaxin domain.,
