The protein encoded by this gene is member of the G-protein coupled receptor family. This protein is a receptor for prostaglandin F2-alpha (PGF2-alpha), which is known to be a potent luteolytic agent, and may also be involved in modulating intraocular pressure and smooth muscle contraction in uterus. Knockout studies in mice suggest that the interaction of PGF2-alpha with this receptor may initiate parturition in ovarian luteal cells and thus induce luteolysis. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
由该基因编码的蛋白质是G蛋白偶联受体家族的成员。这种蛋白是前列腺素F2-α(PGF2-α),这是已知的一种有效的溶黄剂的受体,并且也可以参与调节在子宫眼压和平滑肌收缩。在小鼠中敲除的研究表明,PGF2-α与该受体的相互作用可能在卵巢黄体细胞开始分娩从而诱发luteolysis。已发现该基因编码不同亚型的两个转录变异体。 [由RefSeq的,2008年7月提供]
