EDG-3 rabbit polyclonal, anti-human, mouse, rat

Backgroud: This gene encodes a member of the EDG family of receptors, which are G protein-coupled receptors. This protein has been identified as a functional receptor for sphingosine 1-phosphate and likely contributes to the regulation of angiogenesis and vascular endothelial cell function. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],function:Receptor for the lysosphingolipid sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P). S1P is a bioactive lysophospholipid that elicits diverse physiological effect on most types of cells and tissues. When expressed in rat HTC4 hepatoma cells, is capable of mediating S1P-induced cell proliferation and suppression of apoptosis.,similarity:Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.,tissue specificity:Expressed in all tissues, but most abundantly in heart, placenta, kidney, and liver.,
