Function
- receptor for somatostatin
- higher affinity for somatostatin-14 than somatostatin-28
- coupled via pertussis toxin sensitive G proteins to inhibition of adenylyl cyclase
- additionally, stimulates phosphotyrosine phosphatase & Na+/H+ exchanger via pertussis toxin insensitive G proteins
- interacts with SKB1
Structure
belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family
