Record overview

LMPD IDLMP002003
Gene ID5739
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Nameprostaglandin I2 (prostacyclin) receptor (IP)
Gene SymbolPTGIR
SynonymsIP; PRIPR
Alternate namesprostacyclin receptor; PGI receptor; PGI2 receptor; prostanoid IP receptor; prostaglandin I2 receptor
Chromosome19
Map Location19q13.3
SummaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a member of the G-protein coupled receptor family 1 and has been shown to be a receptor for prostacyclin. Prostacyclin, the major product of cyclooxygenase in macrovascular endothelium, elicits a potent vasodilation and inhibition of platelet aggregation through binding to this receptor.
