Gene Symbol:

P2RX2 Homo sapiens

Full name:

purinergic receptor P2X 2

Synonyms:

DFNA41, P2X2, P2X purinoceptor 2, ATP receptor, P2X Receptor, subunit 2, purinergic receptor P2X, ligand gated ion channel, 2

Genomic Location:

Chr 12: 131705476-131709045

Description:

The product of this gene belongs to the family of purinoceptors for ATP. This receptor functions as a ligand-gated ion channel. Binding to ATP mediates synaptic transmission between neurons and from neurons to smooth muscle. Multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene.
