GPR115 is a member of the LN-TM7 family of adhesion-type 7TM G-protein coupled receptors (GPCR) with long extracellular N-termini. The 385 aa N-terminal ECD contains a highly N-glycosylated stalk predicted to function in adhesion, followed by a cysteine-rich GPCR proteolytic cleavage site (GPS). Within the N-terminal region up to the GPS (aa22-347), human GPR115 shares 58% aa sequence identity with the corresponding region of mouse and rat GPR115. GPR115 was identified from expressed sequence tags (ESTs) found in pregnant uterus, breast, and the genitourinary tract.
