Gene information for P2RX4 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID5025
Official gene symbolP2RX4
Full namepurinergic receptor P2X, ligand-gated ion channel, 4
Aliases,P2X4,P2X4R,
Gene summaryThe product of this gene belongs to the family of purinoceptors for ATP. This receptor functions as a ligand-gated ion channel with high calcium permeability. The main pharmacological distinction between the members of the purinoceptor family is the relative sensitivity to the antagonists suramin and PPADS. The product of this gene has the lowest sensitivity for these antagonists. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified for this gene although their full-length natures have not been determined. [provided by RefSeq]
