Lpar1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables PDZ domain binding activity and lysophosphatidic acid receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including adenylate cyclase-inhibiting G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; positive regulation of intracellular signal transduction; and positive regulation of stress fiber assembly. Acts upstream of or within bleb assembly. Located in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; embryo mesenchyme; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human LPAR1 (lysophosphatidic acid receptor 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 Lpar1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
