Source Organism

Homo sapiens (Human).

Taxomomy

Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi;Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini;Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo.

Subcellular Localization

Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.

Developmental Stage

Similarity

Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.

Post translational Modification

Function

Receptor for prostaglandin D2 (PGD2). The activity of this receptor is mainly mediated by G(s) proteins that stimulate adenylate cyclase, resulting in an elevation of intracellular cAMP. A mobilization of calcium is also observed, but without formation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate.
