Summary: (from NCBI-Entrez) ..[read more]The product of this gene belongs to the family of G-protein coupled receptors. This family has several receptor subtypes with different pharmacological selectivity, which overlaps in some cases, for various adenosine and uridine nucleotides. This receptor
Uridine nucleotide selectivity of three phospholipase C-activating P2 receptors: identification of a UDP-selective, a UTP-selective, and an ATP- and UTP-specific receptor. Mol Pharmacol. 1996 The data indicate that the P2Y2 receptor is activated with similar potencies by ATP and UTP but not by ADP or UDP.
