G protein-coupled estrogen receptor 1 (GPER; CEPR; G-protein coupled receptor 30, GPR30) (Feng Y and Gregor P, 1997) has a ubiquitous tissue distribution. This orphan receptor is unrelated to nuclear estrogen receptors, but shows all the binding and signaling characteristics of a membrane estrogen receptor (mER). This suggests a role for GPCRs in nonclassical steroid hormone actions.
