Background InformationThe Proteinase-activated receptor 2 (PAR2) is a member of the proteinase-activated receptor subfamily. It is activated through proteolytic exposure of an occult tethered ligand by trypsin and trypsin-like proteases. This is in contrast to other members of the subfamily which are activated by the protease thrombin. PAR2 has been implicated in acute inflammatory response, asthma, and pain transmission. PAR2 expression has been documented in the periphery. ESTs have been isolated from adrenal, brain, breast, heart/melanocyte/uterus, kidney, lung, and vessel libraries.

Entrez Gene Number
Entrez Gene SummaryCoagulation factor II (thrombin) receptor-like 1 (F2RL1) is a member of the large family of 7-transmembrane-region receptors that couple to guanosine-nucleotide-binding proteins. F2RL1 is also a member of the protease-activated receptor family. It is activated by trypsin, but not by thrombin. It is activated by proteolytic cleavage of its extracellular amino terminus. The new amino terminus functions as a tethered ligand and activates the receptor. The F2RL1 gene contains two exons and is widely expressed in human tissues. The predicted protein sequence is 83% identical to the mouse receptor sequence.

UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: SwissProt: P55085 # Receptor for trypsin and trypsin-like enzymes coupled to G proteins that stimulate phosphoinositide hydrolysis. May have a role in the regulation of vascular tone.
SIZE: 397 amino acids; 44126 Da
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Widely expressed in tissues with especially high levels in pancreas, liver, kidney, small intestine, and colon. Moderate expression is detected in many organs, but none in brain or skeletal muscle.
PTM: A proteolytic cleavage generates a new N-terminus that functions as a tethered ligand.
SIMILARITY: SwissProt: P55085 ## Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
