Preferred Label : Somatostatin Receptor Type 2b;

NCIt synonyms : SSTR2B; SSR(2(b)); Somatostatin Receptor Subtype 2b; Somatostatin Receptor Type 2 Isoform B; SSR2b;

NCIt definition : Somatostatin receptor type 2b (356 aa, 40 kDa) is encoded by the human SSTR2 gene. This protein plays a role in G protein-coupled receptor signaling.;

NCIt note : Somatostatin receptor type 2b is encoded by an alternatively spliced transcript of the SSTR2 gene. Thirty-seven C-terminal amino acids of somatostatin receptor type 2a have been substituted by 24 non-homologous amino acids in somatostatin receptor type 2b.;
