Orexin receptor type 2 (Ox2R or OX₂), also known as hypocretin receptor type 2 (HcrtR2), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HCRTR2 gene. ^[5] It should not be confused for the protein CD200R1 which shares the alias OX2R but is a distinct, unrelated gene located on the human chromosome 3. ^[6]

Structure

The structure of the receptor has been solved to 2.5 Å resolution as a fusion protein bound to suvorexant using lipid-mediated crystallization. ^[7]

Function

OX₂ is a G-protein coupled receptor expressed exclusively in the brain. It has 64% identity with OX₁. OX₂ binds both orexin A and orexin B neuropeptides. OX₂ is involved in the central feedback mechanism that regulates feeding behaviour. ^[5] Mice with enhanced OX₂ signaling are resistant to high-fat diet-induced obesity. ^[8]

This receptor is activated by Hipocretin, which is a wake-promoting hypothalamic neuropeptide that acts as a critical regulator of sleep in animals as Zebrafish or Mammals. This protein has mutations in Astyanax mexicanus that reduces the sleep needs of the cavefish. ^[9]
