Description
Product Characteristics: Cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CYSLTR2 gene. The cysteinyl leukotrienes LTC4, LTD4, and LTE4 are important mediators of human bronchial asthma. Pharmacologic studies have determined that cysteinyl leukotrienes activate at least 2 receptors, the protein encoded by this gene and CYSLTR1. This encoded receptor is a member of the superfamily of G protein-coupled receptors.
