Description
CYSLTR1 encodes a member of the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. Cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1 is a receptor for cysteinyl leukotrienes, and is involved in mediating bronchoconstriction via activation of a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. Activation of the encoded receptor results in contraction and proliferation of bronchial smooth muscle cells, eosinophil migration, and damage to the mucus layer in the lung. Upregulation of CYSLTR1 is associated with asthma and dysregulation may also be implicated in cancer. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants
