    Summary
    Enables prostaglandin E receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including intracellular signaling cassette; regulation of macromolecule biosynthetic process; and regulation of secretion. Located in neuron projection terminus; neuronal cell body; and nuclear membrane. Used to study acute kidney failure; cystitis; end stage renal disease; myocarditis; and osteoporosis. Biomarker of retinal ischemia and transient cerebral ischemia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in ankylosing spondylitis; arteriosclerosis; and ulcerative colitis. Orthologous to human PTGER4 (prostaglandin E receptor 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
