General annotation (Comments)

Function

This is a receptor for glucagon which plays a central role in regulating the level of blood glucose by controlling the rate of hepatic glucose production and insulin secretion. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylyl cyclase and also a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system.

Subcellular location

Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 2 family.
