| Function |
Receptor for lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a mediator of diverse cellular activities. Seems to be coupled to the G(i)/G(o), G(12)/G(13), and G(q) families of heteromeric G proteins. Stimulates phospholipase C (PLC) activity in a manner that is dependent on RALA activation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19306925}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Cell surface {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19306925}. Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19306925}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19306925}. Note=Prior to LPA treatment found predominantly at the cell surface but in the presence of LPA colocalizes with RALA in the endocytic vesicles.
