Gene information for GPR132 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID29933
Official gene symbolGPR132
Full nameG protein-coupled receptor 132
Aliases,G2A,MGC99642,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a subfamily member of the G-protein couple receptor (GPCR) superfamily. The encoded protein is a high-affinity receptor for lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC), a major phospholipid component of oxidized low density lipoprotein. This protein may react to LPC levels at sites of inflammation to limit the expansion of tissue-infiltrating cells. A similar protein in mouse is involved in cell cycle progression.
