ID:LT4R1_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Leukotriene B4 receptor 1; Short=LTB4-R 1; Short=LTB4-R1; AltName: Full=Chemoattractant receptor-like 1; AltName: Full=G-protein coupled receptor 16; AltName: Full=P2Y purinoceptor 7; Short=P2Y7; FUNCTION: Receptor for extracellular ATP > UTP and ADP. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. May be the cardiac P2Y receptor involved in the regulation of cardiac muscle contraction through modulation of L-type calcium currents. Is a receptor for leukotriene B4, a potent chemoattractant involved in inflammation and immune response. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed at highest levels in heart, skeletal muscle and at lower levels in brain and liver. High level of expression in lymphoid tissues. PTM: Phosphorylated by GRK6 upon leukotriene B4 binding; which promotes desensitization. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=AAB16747.1; 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.
