Parathyroid hormone 2 receptor

Parathyroid hormone 2 receptor is a is_associated_with::protein that in humans is encoded by the PTH2R is_associated_with::gene

Function
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the is_associated_with::G protein-coupled receptor family 2. This protein is a receptor for is_associated_with::parathyroid hormone (PTH). This receptor is more selective in ligand recognition and has a more specific tissue distribution compared to parathyroid hormone 1 receptor (PTH1R). It is activated only by PTH and not by parathyroid hormone-like hormone (PTHLH) and is particularly abundant in brain and pancreas.
