The bombesin-like receptor 3 (BRS-3) is a G protein-coupled receptor.[1] As no endogenous ligand has been identified for BRS-3, it is classified as an orphan receptor.

Mammalian bombesin-like peptides (see MIM 137260) are widely distributed in the central nervous system as well as in the gastrointestinal tract, where they modulate smooth-muscle contraction, exocrine and endocrine processes, metabolism, and behavior. They bind to G protein-coupled receptors on the cell surface to elicit their effects. Bombesin-like peptide receptors include gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (MIM 305670), neuromedin B receptor (MIM 162341), and bombesin-like receptor-3 (BRS3) (Ohki-Hamazaki et al., 1997).[supplied by OMIM][2]
