AVPR2
The V2 receptor, which is part of the seven-transmembrane-domain G protein-coupled receptor superfamily and links to Gs to activate adenylate cyclase, is encoded by this gene. It is also known as the vasopressin receptor type 2 (V2 receptor). The V2 receptor is mostly found in the distal convoluted tubule and collecting ducts of the kidney, where it is expressed. In response to the pituitary hormone arginine vasopressin, it stimulates mechanisms that concentrate urine and keep the body's water balance in check. Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus develops when this gene's function is lost. The V2 receptor is expressed outside of the kidney as well, though its exact location in the tissue is unknown.
