Record overview

LMPD IDLMP003735
Gene ID2864
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Namefree fatty acid receptor 1
Gene SymbolFFAR1
SynonymsFFA1R; GPCR40; GPR40
Alternate namesfree fatty acid receptor 1; G protein-coupled receptor 40; G-protein coupled receptor 40
Chromosome19
Map Location19q13.1
SummaryThis gene encodes a member of the GP40 family of G protein-coupled receptors that are clustered together on chromosome 19. The encoded protein is a receptor for medium and long chain free fatty acids and may be involved in the metabolic regulation of insulin secretion. Polymorphisms in this gene may be associated with type 2 diabetes. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2009]
