Ptgdrl Gene Summary [Rat]
Enables prostaglandin D receptor activity. Involved in negative regulation of cytosolic calcium ion concentration; positive regulation of penile erection; and vasodilation. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in asthma. Orthologous to human PTGDR (prostaglandin D2 receptor).

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