{"symbol":"GALR3","synonyms":[],"name":"galanin receptor 3","description":"The neuropeptide galanin modulates a variety of physiologic processes including cognition/memory, sensory/pain processing, hormone secretion, and feeding behavior.  The human galanin receptors are G protein-coupled receptors that functionally couple to their intracellular effector through distinct signaling pathways.  GALR3 is found in many tissues and may be expressed as 1.4-, 2.4-, and 5-kb transcripts [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]","ncbiEntrezGeneId":8484,"ncbiEntrezGeneUrl":"http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/8484","proteins":[{"symbol":"GALR3_HUMAN","href":"/api/1.0/protein/GALR3_HUMAN"}],"hgncRootFamilies":[{"name":"G protein-coupled receptors","href":"/api/1.0/gene_family/G+protein-coupled+receptors"}]}
