Presumed off target binding observed and disregarded. Antibody staining consistent with external characterization data and GTEx RNA expression data. Pending retesting.
A few cases of squamous cell carcinomas, urothelial and colon cancers showed moderate cytoplasmic immunoreactivity, Moderate to strong positivity was exhibited in a few renal cancers. Remaining cancers were weakly stained or negative.
A few cases of carcinoid cancer displayed moderate cytoplasmic staining. Essentially all remaining cancer cells were weakly stained or negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
GPR50 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
H9, Mel1c
Description
G protein-coupled receptor 50 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene product belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. Even though this protein shares similarity with the melatonin receptors, it does not bind melatonin, however, it inhibits melatonin receptor 1A function through heterodimerization. Polymorphic variants of this gene have been associated with bipolar affective disorder in women. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]
