Protein Structure

UniProt Annotation

Function

Receptor for thromboxane A2 (TXA2), a potent stimulator of platelet aggregation. The activity of this receptor is mediated by a G-protein that activates a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. In the kidney, the binding of TXA2 to glomerular TP receptors causes intense vasoconstriction. Activates phospholipase C. Isoform 1 activates adenylyl cyclase. Isoform 2 inhibits adenylyl cyclase. {ECO:0000269PubMed:8613548}.

Subcellular Localization

Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.

Disease Associations

Bleeding disorder, platelet-type 13 (BDPLT13) [MIM:614009]: A disorder characterized by reduced platelet aggregation and a tendency to mild mucocutaneous bleeding. {ECO:0000269PubMed:7929844}. Note=Disease susceptibility is associated with variations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
