Function
G protein-coupled receptor for the tridecapeptide neurotensin (NTS). Signaling is effected via G proteins that activate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. Signaling leads to the activation of downstream MAP kinases and protects cells against apoptosis.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Cell membrane (Multi-pass membrane protein); Membrane raft
Tissue Specificity: Expressed in prostate (at protein level). Detected in colon and peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Detected at very low levels in brain
