Full name: prostaglandin I receptor (IP)

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: VALIDATED

Also known as: IP; PGI2

Summary: Predicted to enable prostacyclin receptor activity. Involved in adenylate cyclase-activating G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; negative regulation of platelet-derived growth factor receptor signaling pathway; and negative regulation of smooth muscle cell proliferation. Acts upstream of or within response to lipopolysaccharide. Predicted to be located in cytosol. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; gallbladder; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; and limb segment. Orthologous to human PTGIR (prostaglandin I2 receptor). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
