Purification process (Immunogen)
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.
Background
The product of this gene belongs to the family of G-protein coupled receptors. This family has several receptor subtypes with different pharmacological selectivity, which overlaps in some cases, for various adenosine and uridine nucleotides. This receptor is responsive to uridine nucleotides, partially responsive to ATP, and not responsive to ADP. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],
Function
function:Receptor for UTP and UDP coupled to G-proteins that activate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. Not activated by ATP or ADP.,PTM:Phosphorylation of Ser-333 and Ser-334 is a key step in agonist-dependent desensitization and loss of surface P2RY4. This phosphorylation does not involve PKC, nor other calcium activated kinases.,similarity:Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.,tissue specificity:Pancreas.,
