General annotation (Comments)

Function

Receptor for prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). The activity of this receptor is mediated by G(s) proteins that stimulate adenylate cyclase. Has a relaxing effect on smooth muscle. May play an important role in regulating renal hemodynamics, intestinal epithelial transport, adrenal aldosterone secretion, and uterine function.

Subunit structure

Interacts with FEM1A. Ref.8

Subcellular location

Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.

Tissue specificity

High in intestine and in peripheral blood mononuclear cells; low in lung, kidney, thymus, uterus, vasculature and brain. Not found in liver, heart, retina oe skeletal muscle.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.

Caution

Was originally designated as the EP2 subtype.
