[edit] Source Organism

Homo sapiens (Human).

[edit] Taxomomy

Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi;Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini;Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo.

[edit] Subcellular Localization

Cell membrane; multi-pass membrane protein. Subunit alpha: Secreted protein; extracellular space. Note=A soluble form is also detected (alpha subunit).

[edit] Developmental Stage

[edit] Similarity

Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 2 family. LN-TM7 subfamily. Contains 2 EGF-like domains. Contains 1 GPS domain.

[edit] Post translational Modification

Proteolytically cleaved into 2 subunits, an extracellular alpha subunit and a seven-transmembrane subunit (By similarity).

[edit] Function

Receptor probably involved in myeloid interactions during immune and inflammatory responses. A ligand for the soluble form of this receptor is present at the surface of momocytes- derived macrophages and activated neutrophils.
