Summary:
Neuropeptide Y receptor type 5 (NPY5R) is a G protein-coupled receptor that binds neuropeptide Y and peptide YY, contributing to the homeostatic control of food intake. Genetic variations affecting this receptor have been associated with eating disorders. In addition to its role in energy regulation, NPY5R has been implicated in protecting neuroblastoma cells against chemotherapy-induced apoptosis, making it a subject of interest in cancer research. Three transcript variants encoding the same functional protein have been identified.
