| Summary | This gene encodes a G-protein-coupled receptor bound by the lysophospholipid, sphingosine 1-phosphate. The gene product functions in endothelial cells and is involved in vascular and heart development. This receptor is highly expressed in T and B lymphocytes, and it plays a role in T cell and B cell export from peripheral lymphoid organs. This protein is bound and downregulated by FTY720, an exogenous immunosuppressant drug studied in mouse disease models for multiple sclerosis in humans. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]. |
