|
Function |
Receptor for lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a mediator of diverse cellular activities. Transduces a signal by increasing the intracellular calcium ions and by stimulating adenylyl cyclase activity. The rank order of potency for agonists of this receptor is 1-oleoyl- > 1-stearoyl- > 1-palmitoyl- > 1-myristoyl- > 1- alkyl- > 1-alkenyl-LPA. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12724320}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
|
Tissue Specificity |
High expression in ovary. Not detected in the brain regions thalamus, putamen, caudate, frontal cortex, pons, hypothalamus and hippocampus. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12724320}.
