GPR81

G protein-coupled receptor 81, also known as GPR81, is a is_associated_with::protein that in humans is encoded by the GPR81 is_associated_with::gene.

is_associated_with::G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs, or GPRs), such as GPR81, contain 7 transmembrane domains and transduce extracellular signals through heterotrimeric is_associated_with::G proteins.

Lactate activates the GPR81 receptor which in turn inhibits is_associated_with::lipolysis in fat cells.
