G protein-coupled receptor 112 is a protein encoded by the ADGRG4 gene. [5] [6] GPR112 is a member of the adhesion GPCR family. [7] [8] Adhesion GPCRs are characterized by an extended extracellular region often possessing N-terminal protein modules that is linked to a TM7 region via a domain known as the GPCR-Autoproteolysis INducing (GAIN) domain. [9]

GPR112 is expressed in human enterochromaffin cells [10] and in the mouse intestine. [11] The N-terminal fragment (NTF) of GPR112 contains pentraxin (PTX)-like modules. [11] GPR112 gene expression has been identified as a marker for neuroendocrine carcinoma cells. [10]
