Background
lysophosphatidic acid receptor 4(LPAR4) Homo sapiens This gene encodes a member of the lysophosphatidic acid receptor family. It may also be related to the P2Y receptors, a family of receptors that bind purine and pyrimidine nucleotides and are coupled to G proteins. The encoded protein may play a role in monocytic differentiation. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2009],
Function
function:Receptor for lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a mediator of diverse cellular activities. Transduces a signal by increasing the intracellular calcium ions and by stimulating adenylyl cyclase activity. The rank order of potency for agonists of this receptor is 1-oleoyl- > 1-stearoyl- > 1-palmitoyl- > 1-myristoyl- > 1-alkyl- > 1-alkenyl-LPA.,similarity:Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.,tissue specificity:High expression in ovary. Not detected in the brain regions thalamus, putamen, caudate, frontal cortex, pons, hypothalamus and hippocampus.,
