| UniProt code: P43116. |
|
||
| Organism: | |
Homo sapiens (Human). |

| 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. |
|
||
| Subcellular location: | |
Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. |
| Tissue specificity: | |
Placenta and lung. |
| Similarity: | |
Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00521}. |
