| UniProt functional annotation for Q15743 | |||
| UniProt code: Q15743. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | Proton-sensing receptor involved in pH homeostasis. May represents an osteoblastic pH sensor regulating cell-mediated responses to acidosis in bone. Mediates its action by association with G proteins that stimulates inositol phosphate (IP) production or Ca(2+) mobilization. The receptor is almost silent at pH 7.8 but fully activated at pH 6.8. Also functions as a metastasis suppressor gene in prostate cancer (By similarity). {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12955148}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Found at low level in a wide range of tissues, but significantly expressed in lung, kidney, bone and nervous system. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12955148}. | |
| Disease: | Amelogenesis imperfecta, hypomaturation type, 2A6 (AI2A6) [MIM:617217]: A defect of enamel formation. The disorder involves both primary and secondary dentitions. The teeth have a shiny agar jelly appearance and the enamel is softer than normal. Brown pigment is present in middle layers of enamel. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:27693231}. Note=The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00521}. | |
| Sequence caution: | Sequence=AAH96071.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; Sequence=AAH96072.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; Sequence=AAH96073.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; Sequence=AAH96074.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; Sequence=AAH98567.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; Sequence=AAT38917.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; Sequence=ACG60649.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; Sequence=EAW81447.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; | |
