UTS2R
Function
High affinity receptor for urotensin-2 and urotensin-2B. The activity of this receptor is mediated by a G-protein that activate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system.
Sequence Similarities
Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
Tissue Specificity
Most abundant expression in the heart and pancreas.
Cellular localization
- Cell membrane
- Multi-pass membrane protein
