| Function: | |
Receptor for the glycosphingolipid psychosine (PSY) and several related glycosphingolipids (PubMed:11309421). Plays a role in immune response by maintaining lysosome function and supporting phagocytosis-mediated intracellular bacteria clearance (PubMed:27287411). May have a role in activation-induced cell death or differentiation of T-cells (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q61038, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11309421, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27287411}. |
|

| Subcellular location: | |
Cell membrane {ECO:0000250}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250}. |
| Tissue specificity: | |
Predominantly expressed in thymus, spleen, lymph nodes, small intestine, lung, placenta and peripheral blood leukocytes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11309421, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9655242}. |
| Similarity: | |
Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00521}. |
