== Disease ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/GP156_HUMAN GP156_HUMAN] The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/GP156_HUMAN GP156_HUMAN] Orphan G-protein coupled receptor involved in the regulation of hair cell orientation in mechanosensory organs of the inner ear. It is required to trigger a 180 degree reversal in hair cell orientation, creating a virtual line of polarity reversal (LPR) across which stereociliary bundles are arranged in opposite orientations.[UniProtKB:Q6PCP7]

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
The class C orphan G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) GPR156, which lacks the large extracellular region, plays a pivotal role in auditory function through G(i2/3). Here, we firstly demonstrate that GPR156 with high constitutive activity is essential for maintaining auditory function, and further reveal the structural basis of the sustained role of GPR156. We present the cryo-EM structures of human apo GPR156 and the GPR156-G(i3) complex, unveiling a small extracellular region formed by extracellular loop 2 (ECL2) and the N-terminus. The GPR156 dimer in both apo state and G(i3) protein-coupled state adopt a transmembrane (TM)5/6-TM5/6 interface, indicating the high constitutive activity of GPR156 in the apo state. Furthermore, C-terminus in G-bound subunit of GPR156 plays a dual role in promoting G protein binding within G-bound subunit while preventing the G-free subunit from binding to additional G protein. Together, these results explain how GPR156 constitutive activity is maintained through dimerization and provide a mechanistic insight into the sustained role of GPR156 in maintaining auditory function.
