Details for receptor: Lysophosphatidic acid receptor 6

EndoNet ID: ENR01296

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.

Binding hormones

  • lysophosphatidic acid
    • Binds to oleoyl-L-alpha-lysophosphatidic acid (LPA). Intracellular cAMP is involved in the receptor activation.

Anatomical structures with this receptor

  • skin

  • hair_follicle

    Induced phenotypes

    • autosomal recessive woolly hair
      • P2Y5 was identified as a critical mediator for human hair growth and is a causal gene of a rare familial form of human hair loss. [2]
  • peripheral blood leukocytes
