products description :
Affinity Purified Free fatty acid receptor 2 Antibody Mid Region. G protein-coupled receptor that is activated by a major product of dietary fiber digestion, the short chain fatty acids (SCFAs), and that plays a role in the regulation of whole-body energy homeostasis and in intestinal immunity. In omnivorous mammals, the short chain fatty acids acetate, propionate and butyrate are produced primarily by the gut microbiome that metabolizes dietary fibers. SCFAs serve as a source of energy but also act as signaling molecules. That G protein-coupled receptor is probably coupled to the pertussis toxin-sensitive, G(i/o)-alpha family of G proteins but also to the Gq family.

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; Receptor, GPCR; GPCR, family 1; Membrane protein, multi-pass. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 19q13.1. Cellular Component: cell projection; integral to plasma membrane; plasma membrane. Molecular Function: G-protein coupled receptor activity; lipid binding; protein binding. Biological Process: cell surface pattern recognition receptor signaling pathway; fat cell differentiation; G-protein coupled receptor protein signaling pathway; glucose homeostasis; leukocyte chemotaxis during inflammatory response; mucosal immune response; positive regulation of acute inflammatory response to non-antigenic stimulus; positive regulation of chemokine production; positive regulation of cytokine production during immune response; regulation of acute inflammatory response; sequestering of lipid
