Descriptor receptor PAR-2
Entry term(s) receptor 2 activado por proteasa
Scope note: Receptor activado por proteinasa, acoplado a una proteína G, que se expresa en diversos tejidos, tales como el ENDOTELIO, LEUCOCITOS y TRACTO GASTROINTESTINAL. El receptor es activado por la TRIPSINA, la cual desprende el péptido N-terminal del receptor. El nuevo péptido N-terminal es un ligando oculto para el receptor. El receptor también puede activarse por la acción del péptido N-terminal presente en el RECEPTOR DE TROMBINA activado, y por pequeños péptidos sintéticos que contiene la secuencia N-terminal.

Scope note: A G-protein-coupled, proteinase-activated receptor that is expressed in a variety of tissues including ENDOTHELIUM; LEUKOCYTES; and the GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT. The receptor is activated by TRYPSIN, which cleaves off the N-terminal peptide from the receptor. The new N-terminal peptide is a cryptic ligand for the receptor. The uncleaved receptor can also be activated by the N-terminal peptide present on the activated THROMBIN RECEPTOR and by small synthetic peptides that contain the unmasked N-terminal sequence.
