Summary
This 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]

Comments

Comment Type Description
Function Receptor for lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a mediator of diverse cellular activities. Seems to be coupled to the G(i)/G(o), G(12)/G(13), and G(q) families of heteromeric G proteins. Plays a key role in phospholipase C-beta (PLC-beta) signaling pathway. Stimulates phospholipase C (PLC) activity in a manner that is independent of RALA activation. {ECO
Interaction P13569:CFTR; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-765995, EBI-349854; Q15599:SLC9A3R2; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-765995, EBI-1149760;
Miscellaneous PubMed:9525886 cDNA clone has a guanine nucleotide deletion that causes a frameshift near its C-terminal coding region. This likely reflects a somatic mutation in the ovary tumor cells from which the cDNA was isolated and may have altered the function of the encoded receptor, and contributed to transformation of the original ovary cells that formed a tumor.
Sequence Caution Sequence=AAC27728.1; Type=Frameshift; Positions=348; Evidence= ;
Similarity Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
Subcellular Location Cell surface . Cell membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein . Note=Prior to LPA treatment found predominantly at the cell surface but in the presence of LPA colocalizes with RALA in the endocytic vesicles.
Subunit Interacts with SLC9A3R2/NHERF2, MAGI3 and PLCB3. Interacts with RALA and ADRBK1. {ECO
Tissue Specificity Expressed most abundantly in testes and peripheral blood leukocytes with less expression in pancreas, spleen, thymus and prostate. Little or no expression in heart, brain, placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney, ovary, small intestine, or colon.
