Leptin receptor, also known as LEPR or OB-R is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LEPR gene.
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the gp130 family of cytokine receptors that are known to stimulate gene transcription via activation of cytosolic STAT proteins.
This protein is a receptor for leptin (an adipocyte-specific hormone that regulates body weight), and is involved in the regulation of fat metabolism, as well as in a novel hematopoietic pathway that is required for normal lymphopoiesis.
Mutations in this gene have been associated with obesity and pituitary dysfunction.
Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene.
