ID:GPR87_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=G-protein coupled receptor 87; AltName: Full=G-protein coupled receptor 95; FUNCTION: Receptor for lysophosphatidic acid (LPA). Necessary for p53/TP53-dependent survival in response to DNA damage. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein (By similarity). TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in placenta and prostate. Weaker expression in thymus. Not expressed in thalamus, hippocampus, pons or cerebellum. Overexpressed in squamous cell carcinoma of the lung. INDUCTION: By expression of p53/TP53 and by DNA damage in a TP53- dependent manner. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=AAK29069.1; Type=Erroneous initiation;
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.
