Preparation and Storage
Background: GPR63
GPR63 is a G protein-coupled receptor that may play a role in brain function. Its expression has been detected in the frontal cortex, with lower levels in the thalamus, caudate, hypothalamus and midbrain. Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P), dihydro-sphingosine 1-phosphate (dihydro-S1P) and dioleoylphosphatidic acid (doPA) may be agonists for this orphan GPCR.
