Tissue Specificity | Highly expressed in the hypothalamus. Also expressed in spinal cord, kidney and testis. |
Function | Plasma membrane progesterone (P4) receptor coupled to G proteins. Seems to act through a G(i) mediated pathway. May be involved in oocyte maturation. Also binds dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), pregnanolone, pregnenolone and allopregnanolone. |
