ID:LPAR3_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Lysophosphatidic acid receptor 3; Short=LPA receptor 3; Short=LPA-3; AltName: Full=Lysophosphatidic acid receptor Edg-7; FUNCTION: Receptor for lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a mediator of diverse cellular activities. May play a role in the development of ovarian cancer. Seems to be coupled to the G(i)/G(o) and G(q) families of heteromeric G proteins. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Most abundantly expressed in prostate, testes, pancreas, and heart, with moderate levels in lung and ovary. No detectable expression in brain, placenta, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney, spleen, thymus, small intestine, colon, or peripheral blood leukocytes. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
