Gene:
pyrimidinergic receptor P2Y, G-protein coupled, 6
Gene ID:
194539
Symbol:
P2RY6
Species:
1000
Description:
The product of this gene belongs to the family of 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 is responsive to UDP, partially responsive to UTP and ADP, and not responsive to ATP. Four transcript variants encoding the same isoform have been identified for this gene.
