Description
Product Characteristics: G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), comprise a large protein family of transmembrane receptors that sense molecules outside the cell and activate inside signal transduction pathways and, ultimately, cellular responses. G protein-coupled receptors are found only in eukaryotes, including yeast, choanoflagellates, and animals. Mas-related G-protein coupled receptor member X2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MRGPRX2 gene.
Target Information: seven transmembrane domain G-protein coupled receptor\, most often found in sensory neurons [RGD, Feb 2006]
