Adgra2 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable G protein-coupled receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including canonical Wnt signaling pathway; positive regulation of canonical Wnt signaling pathway; and sprouting angiogenesis. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of vascular endothelial growth factor signaling pathway; positive regulation of endothelial cell migration; and regulation of establishment of blood-brain barrier. Predicted to be located in cell surface and intracellular membrane-bounded organelle. Predicted to be part of Wnt signalosome. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Orthologous to human ADGRA2 (adhesion G protein-coupled receptor A2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Adgra2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • G-protein coupled receptor
  • Hormone receptor domain
  • 7 transmembrane receptor (Secretin family)
  • immunoglobulin domain
  • Leucine rich repeat
  • GPCR proteolysis site, GPS, motif
  • tail domain
  • protein binding
  • Leucine Rich repeats (2 copies)
  • seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor superfamily
