Ptger1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Enables prostaglandin E receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including adenylate cyclase-activating dopamine receptor signaling pathway; positive regulation of cytosolic calcium ion concentration; and response to prostaglandin E. Predicted to act upstream of or within response to lipopolysaccharide. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Used to study gastric ulcer. Orthologous to human PTGER1 (prostaglandin E receptor 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 rat Ptger1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
