Primary Identifier | MGI:1918089 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 3 | NCBI Gene Number | 70839 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables G protein-coupled ADP receptor activity and G protein-coupled adenosine receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to ATP; regulation of microglial cell migration; and substrate-dependent cell migration, cell extension. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including adenylate cyclase-modulating G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; platelet activation; and positive regulation of monoatomic ion transport. Located in cell body membrane and cell projection membrane. Is expressed in central nervous system and cerebral cortex. Used to study platelet-type bleeding disorder 8. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in asthma; cerebrovascular disease; peripheral artery disease; platelet-type bleeding disorder 8; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human P2RY12 (purinergic receptor P2Y12). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous mutation of this gene results in impaired platelet activation, increased bleeding time and delayed thrombus formation in injured arteries. [provided by MGI curators] |
