P2ry12 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables G protein-coupled ADP receptor activity and G protein-coupled adenosine receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to ATP; regulation of microglial cell migration; and substrate-dependent cell migration, cell extension. Acts upstream of or within adenylate cyclase-modulating G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; platelet activation; and positive regulation of monoatomic ion transport. Located in cell body membrane and cell projection membrane. Is expressed in central nervous system and cerebral cortex. Used to study platelet-type bleeding disorder 8. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in asthma; cerebrovascular disease; peripheral artery disease; platelet-type bleeding disorder 8; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human P2RY12 (purinergic receptor P2Y12). [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 P2ry12 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
