    Summary
    Enables prolactin receptor activity. Involved in positive regulation of cold-induced thermogenesis. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cell surface receptor signaling pathway via JAK-STAT; mammary gland development; and prostate gland growth. Predicted to be located in cell surface. Predicted to be part of receptor complex. Predicted to be active in external side of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; and limb segment. Used to study familial medullary thyroid carcinoma. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hyperprolactinemia. Orthologous to human PRLR (prolactin receptor).

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
