General Comments
ADGRF3 (formerly GPR113) is an orphan receptor that belongs to Family VI Adhesion-GPCRs together with ADGRF1, 2 , 4 and 5 [2].

Gene prediction [3] has first two exons which are not supported by cDNAs and fails to predict the last two exons. Available human cDNAs show various splicing patterns involving the first 7 exons. RefSeq NP_722577.2 is based on a variant which lacks two coding exons that are present in several cDNAs. Inclusion of those two exons would increase protein size to 1013 amino acids. The N terminus of ADGRF3 contains a GPCR proteolysis site (GPS) and a hormone receptor motif (HRM).
