[Encoded by human TACR3 Gene (GPCR1 Family), 465-aa 52-kDa integral membrane protein Tachykinin Receptor 3 is a receptor for the tachykinin neuropeptide Neuromedin K and interacts with G proteins that activate a PI-calcium second messenger system. Receptor anchoring to the plasma membrane is probably mediated by palmitoylation of a cysteine residue. Ligand affinity of the receptor (specified in the 5'-end) to tachykinins is: Neuromedin K > Substance K > Substance P. (NCI) ( NCI )]
