Target Information
Bovine prolactin receptor (PRLR) is a cell surface receptor that binds to the hormone prolactin, mediating its diverse physiological effects. PRLR is found in various tissues across the body, including the mammary glands, immune cells, and the reproductive system. In cattle, PRLR plays a crucial role in lactation, immune function, and reproductive processes. It is particularly important for the initiation and maintenance of milk production in dairy cows. The receptor is also implicated in the regulation of cell growth, differentiation, and survival. Additionally, PRLR has been associated with the modulation of hair growth and texture in cattle, with certain mutations leading to a 'slick' hair phenotype. The study of PRLR in cattle can provide insights into the complex interplay between hormonal signaling and physiological adaptations in livestock.
