Gene:
formyl peptide receptor-like 2
Gene ID:
190096
Symbol:
FPRL2
Species:
1000
Description:
Low affinity receptor to N-formyl-methionyl peptides, which are powerful neutrophils chemotactic factors. Binding of FMLP to the receptor causes activation of neutrophils. This response is mediated via a G-protein that activates a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system.
