Subcellular locationCell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein
Developmental StageN/A
Similarity Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
Tissue SpecificityPlacenta and lung.
Post translational modificationN/A
Function Receptor for prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). The activity of this receptor is mediated by G(s) proteins that stimulate adenylate cyclase. The subsequent raise in intracellular cAMP is responsible for the relaxing effect of this receptor on smooth muscle.
