This gene encodes a protein initially identified as a thyroid-specific transcription factor. The encoded protein binds to the thyroglobulin promoter and regulates the expression of thyroid-specific genes but has also been shown to regulate the expression of genes involved in morphogenesis. Mutations and deletions in this gene are associated with benign hereditary chorea, choreoathetosis, congenital hypothyroidism, and neonatal respiratory distress, and may be associated with thyroid cancer.

Chemokine-Like Receptor 1 (CMKLR1) is a serpentine transmembrane G-protein linked receptor. It is an orphan chemoattractant receptor, also known as ChemR23 or DEZ. CMKLR1 is expressed on the surface of monocyte-derived immature dendritic cells and peripheral plamacytoid dendritic (pDC) cells; but not on myeloid dendritic (mDC) cells, monocytes and lymphocytes. The expression of CMKLR1 on pDC is down-regulated after activation. Chemerin (TIG2) is a natural ligand of CMKLR1. The interaction of

This is one of the five types (D1 to D5) of receptors for dopamine. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which inhibit adenylyl cyclase. This receptor is expressed in phylogenetically older regions of the brain, suggesting that it plays a role in cognitive and emotional functions. It is a target for drugs which treat schizophrenia, drug addiction, and Parkinson disease. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants that would encode different iso
