Summary

PTGER1 (prostaglandin E receptor 1, HGNC:9593) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 19p13.12, encoding Prostaglandin E2 receptor EP1 subtype (P34995). Receptor for prostaglandin E2 (PGE2).

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the G protein-coupled receptor family. This protein is one of four receptors identified for prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). Through a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system, G-Q proteins mediate this receptor’s activity. Knockout studies in mice suggested a role of this receptor in mediating algesia and in regulation of blood pressure. Studies in mice also suggested that this gene may mediate adrenocorticotropic hormone response to bacterial endotoxin.

May play a role as an important modulator of renal function. Implicated the smooth muscle contractile response to PGE2 in various tissues.

Subcellular location. Cell membrane.

Tissue specificity. Abundant in kidney. Lower level expression in lung, skeletal muscle and spleen, lowest expression in testis and not detected in liver brain and heart.

Post-translational modifications. Phosphorylated.

Similarity. Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
