ncbi summary :
This gene encodes a member of the GP40 family of G protein-coupled receptors that are clustered together on chromosome 19. The encoded protein is a receptor for short chain free fatty acids and may be involved in the inflammatory response and in regulating lipid plasma levels. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2009]
uniprot summary :
FFAR2: Receptor for short chain fatty acids through a G(i)- protein-mediated inhibition of adenylyl cyclase and elevation of intracellular calcium. The rank order of potency for agonists of this receptor is acetate= propionate = butyrate pentanoate = formate. Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. Protein type: Membrane protein, integral; Membrane protein, multi-pass; GPCR, family 1; Receptor, GPCR. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 19q13.1. Cellular Component: cell projection; integral to plasma membrane; plasma membrane. Molecular Function: G-protein coupled receptor activity; protein binding; lipid binding. Biological Process: fat cell differentiation; G-protein coupled receptor protein signaling pathway; sequestering of lipid; mucosal immune response; regulation of acute inflammatory response; positive regulation of cytokine production during immune response; cell surface pattern recognition receptor signaling pathway; positive regulation of acute inflammatory response to non-antigenic stimulus; glucose homeostasis; leukocyte chemotaxis during inflammatory response; positive regulation of chemokine production
