LGRs (leucine-rich repeat-containing G-protein coupled receptor) are divided into three major subgroups: glycoprotein hormone receptors the subgroup of GPR48, GPR49, and LGR6 and receptors of relaxin family ligands (LGR7 and LGR8), of which GPR49 is emerging as a significant player in stem cells biology as it is highly expressed on stem cells in small intestine, colon and hair follicle. ![]() GPR49/LGR5 (G protein-coupled receptor 49 / leucine-rich repeat-containing G protein-coupled receptor 5), also called FEX, GPR67, GRP49, HG38 or MGC117008), is structurally related to members of glycoprotein hormone receptor family including FSH-R, TSH-R and LH-R.
