Description
The NPY6R (neuropeptide Y receptor Y6 (pseudogene)) is a pseudo gene located on chromosome 5.
The NPY6R gene in humans produces a protein known as Putative neuropeptide Y receptor type 6. This protein is thought to be a receptor for neuropeptide Y, a neurotransmitter involved in a variety of bodily functions, such as appetite, stress, and anxiety.
The NPY6R gene encodes a protein that is believed to be a receptor for neuropeptide Y, a neurotransmitter involved in various physiological processes, including appetite, stress, and anxiety. However, the exact function of this receptor remains unclear.
