About P2RY6

Cytogenetic location: 11q13.4 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 11:73,264,506-73,298,625 (from NCBI)

This gene has 16 transcripts (splice variants), 183 orthologues and 15 paralogues. Biased expression in spleen (RPKM 4.4), placenta (RPKM 2.2) and 9 other tissues.

Summary

The product of this gene belongs to the family of P2 receptors, which is activated by extracellular nucleotides and subdivided into P2X ligand-gated ion channels and P2Y G-protein coupled receptors. This family has several receptor subtypes with different pharmacological selectivity, which overlaps in some cases, for various adenosine and uridine nucleotides. This receptor, which is a G-protein coupled receptor, is responsive to UDP, partially responsive to UTP and ADP, and not responsive to ATP. It is proposed that this receptor mediates inflammatory responses. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2013]
