UniProt functional annotation for P51582

UniProt code: P51582.

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo.
 
Function: Receptor for UTP and UDP coupled to G-proteins that activate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. Not activated by ATP or ADP.
 
Subcellular location: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
Tissue specificity: Pancreas.
Ptm: Phosphorylation of Ser-333 and Ser-334 is a key step in agonist- dependent desensitization and loss of surface P2RY4. This phosphorylation does not involve PKC, nor other calcium activated kinases. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11114308}.
Similarity: Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00521}.
