Summary: Enables sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor activity. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of cytosolic calcium ion concentration. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; eye; immune system; male reproductive gland or organ; and nervous system. Orthologous to human GPR6 (G protein-coupled receptor 6). [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.
