The function of Ensembl gene identifier ENSG00000106018 (VIPR2, vasoactive intestinal peptide receptor 2) is as follows. G protein-coupled receptor activated by the neuropeptides vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and pituitary adenylate cyclase- activating polypeptide (ADCYAP1/PACAP) (PubMed:7811244, PubMed:35477937, PubMed:8933357). Binds VIP and both PACAP27 and PACAP38 bioactive peptides with the following order of potency PACAP38 = VIP > PACAP27 (PubMed:35477937, PubMed:8933357). Ligand binding causes a conformation change that triggers signaling via guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) and modulates the activity of downstream effectors. Activates cAMP-dependent pathway (PubMed:7811244, PubMed:35477937, PubMed:8933357). May be coupled to phospholipase C. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:35477937, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7811244, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8933357}.
