Fpr2 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables N-formyl peptide receptor activity and amyloid-beta binding activity. Involved in cellular response to amyloid-beta; positive chemotaxis; and positive regulation of superoxide anion generation. Acts upstream of or within phospholipase C-activating G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Orthologous to human FPR2 (formyl peptide receptor 2). [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 Fpr2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
