P2rx1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables monoatomic cation channel activity and purinergic nucleotide receptor activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including platelet activation; regulation of monoatomic ion transport; and serotonin secretion by platelet. Located in external side of plasma membrane and postsynaptic membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including bladder; foregut-midgut junction; heart; liver lobe; and midgut. Orthologous to human P2RX1 (purinergic receptor P2X 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 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 mouse P2rx1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
