FFAR2 - free fatty acid receptor 2 Gene

Homo sapiens

Also known as FFA2R; GPR43

Gene ID: 2867 | Gene type: protein coding

About FFAR2

Cytogenetic location: 19q13.12 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 19:35,448,257-35,451,767 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 333 orthologues and 15 paralogues. Biased expression in appendix (RPKM 7.9), bone marrow (RPKM 5.6) and 11 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the GP40 family of G protein-coupled receptors that are clustered together on chromosome 19. The encoded protein is a receptor for short chain free fatty acids and may be involved in the inflammatory response and in regulating lipid plasma levels. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2009]
