About GPR132

Cytogenetic location: 14q32.33 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 14:105,049,395-105,065,430 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 27 orthologues and 7 paralogues. Broad expression in appendix (RPKM 4.0), lymph node (RPKM 3.6) and 20 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G protein)-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily. The receptors are seven-pass transmembrane proteins that respond to extracellular cues and activate intracellular signal transduction pathways. This protein was reported to be a receptor for lysophosphatidylcholine action, but PubMedID: 15653487 retracts this finding and instead suggests this protein to be an effector of lysophosphatidylcholine action. This protein may have proton-sensing activity and may be a receptor for oxidized free fatty acids. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]
