P2ry2 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable A1 adenosine receptor binding activity; ATP binding activity; and G protein-coupled UTP receptor activity. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of mucus secretion. Predicted to be located in apical plasma membrane; basolateral plasma membrane; and early endosome. Predicted to be active in glutamatergic synapse and presynaptic active zone membrane. Is expressed in lung. Orthologous to human P2RY2 (purinergic receptor P2Y2). [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 P2ry2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
