P2RY8
Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
P2Y purinoceptor 8 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the P2RY8 gene.[3][4]
Function
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the family of G-protein coupled receptors, that are preferentially activated by adenosine and uridine nucleotides. This gene is moderately expressed in undifferentiated HL60 cells, and is located on both chromosomes X and Y.[4]
Clinical relevance
Recurrent mutations in this gene have been associated to cases of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.[5]
