Leptin receptor, also known as LEP-R or OB-R, is a type I cytokine receptor,[5] a protein that in humans is encoded by the LEPR gene.[6][7] LEP-R functions as a receptor for the fat cell-specific hormone leptin. LEP-R has also been designated as CD295 (cluster of differentiation 295). Its location is the cell membrane, and it has extracellular, trans-membrane and intracellular sections (protein regions).
