Hypocretin (orexin) receptor 2, also known as HCRTR2, is a human gene.[1]
HCRTR2 is a G-protein coupled receptor expressed exclusively in the brain. It has 64% identity with HCRTR1. HCRTR2 binds both orexin A and orexin B neuropeptides. HCRTR2 is involved in the central feedback mechanism that regulates feeding behaviour.[1]
