Details for receptor: PGI receptor

EndoNet ID: ENR00733

To link to the content of EndoNet use the EndoNet ID that is given on the detail pages in the format ENX0000, where X is a place holder for the type of the component (e. g. R for receptor or C for anatomical structure).
As URL for the linking append this ID to the detail page for this type of component.
For an hormone that would be:

http://endonet.bioinf.med.uni-goettingen.de/hormone/ENH00000

It is also possible to use the search of EndoNet to link to the right detail page. The URL should look like

http://endonet.bioinf.med.uni-goettingen.de/search/ENC00000
If the search pattern is unambigious the user is directed to the corresponding detail page.

Synonyms

  • IP
  • prostanoid IP receptor
  • PGI receptor
  • prostaglandin I2 receptor
  • prostacyclin receptor

General information

  • The human prostacyclin receptor (hIP) is isoprenylated in whole cells. [1]
  • The human prostacyclin receptor (hIP) consistes of seven transmembrane-spanning G-proteins. [2]
  • The phosphorylation of the prostacyclin receptor by protein kinase C causes the rapid desensitization of the human prostacyclin. [3]
