Tbxa2r Gene Summary [Mouse]

This gene encodes a multi-pass membrane protein that functions as a G-protein coupled receptor. The encoded protein binds thromboxane A2, resulting in the aggregation of platelets and constriction of blood vessels. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants for this gene.

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 Tbxa2r often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
