Term

somatostatin receptor activity

ID (Ontology)

GO:0004994 (Gene Ontology)

Definition

Combining with somatostatin to initiate a change in cell activity. Somatostatin is a peptide hormone that regulates the endocrine system by signaling via G protein-coupled somatostatin receptors. Somatostatin has two active forms produced by proteolytic cleavage: a 14 amino acid peptide (SST-14) and a 28 amino acid peptide (SST-28).

Also Known As

"GHIH receptor activity" ; "growth hormone-inhibiting hormone receptor activity" ; "somatotrophin release inhibiting factor receptor activity" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
