Comments
Comment typeDescription
FunctionReceptor for the lysosphingolipid sphingosine 1- phosphate (S1P). S1P is a bioactive lysophospholipid that elicits diverse physiological effect on most types of cells and tissues.
SimilarityBelongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00521}.
Subcellular LocationCell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
Tissue SpecificityMost abundant in heart, lung, kidney and spleen; low but detectable in brain, thymus, muscle and testis; and nearly undetectable in liver, stomach, and intestine. Expressed in embryonic lung from embryonic day 14-18. Also abundantly detected in embryonic nasal cartilage, sphenoid bone, vena cava, Meckel's cartilage/incisor teeth, genital tubercle and bladder. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9931453}.
