{"symbol":"HCRTR1","synonyms":["OX1R"],"name":"hypocretin (orexin) receptor 1","description":"The protein encoded by this gene is a G-protein coupled receptor involved in the regulation of feeding behavior. The encoded protein selectively binds the hypothalamic neuropeptide orexin A. A related gene (HCRTR2) encodes a G-protein coupled receptor that binds orexin A and orexin B.
