Gene ID9170
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Namelysophosphatidic acid receptor 2
Gene SymbolLPAR2
SynonymsEDG-4; EDG4; LPA-2; LPA2
Alternate nameslysophosphatidic acid receptor 2; LPA receptor 2; LPA receptor EDG4; G protein-coupled receptor; lysophosphatidic acid receptor EDG4; lysophosphatidic acid receptor Edg-4; endothelial differentiation, lysophosphatidic acid G-protein-coupled receptor, 4
Chromosome19
Map Location19p12
SummaryThis gene encodes a member of family I of the G protein-coupled receptors, as well as the EDG family of proteins. This protein functions as a lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) receptor and contributes to Ca2+ mobilization, a critical cellular response to LPA in cells, through association with Gi and Gq proteins. An alternative splice variant has been described but its full length sequence has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
