Published in 2022 at "International Journal of Molecular Sciences"

DOI: 10.3390/ijms232012133

Abstract: G protein-coupled receptor 39 (GPR39) is a zinc-sensing receptor (ZnR) that can sense changes in extracellular Zn2+, mediate Zn2+ signal transmission, and participate in the regulation of numerous physiological activities in living organisms. For example,… read more here.
