Background: This gene encodes a receptor for prostaglandin E2, a metabolite of arachidonic acid which has different biologic activities in a wide range of tissues. Mutations in this gene are associated with aspirin-induced susceptibility to asthma. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009],
Function:function:Receptor for prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). The activity of this receptor is mediated by G(s) proteins that stimulate adenylate cyclase. The subsequent raise in intracellular cAMP is responsible for the relaxing effect of this receptor on smooth muscle.,similarity:Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.,tissue specificity:Placenta and lung.,
Subcellular Location:Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
Expression:Placenta and lung.
