GPR35 — G protein-coupled receptor 35

GPR35 belongs to a gene co-expression module in 1 of 28 SCUBA cell types. Each module groups genes that rise and fall together in that cell type; the genes it shares a module with are its closest co-expression partners there.

Function

G-protein coupled receptor that binds to several ligands including the tryptophan metabolite kynurenic acid (KYNA), lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) or 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) with high affinity, leading to rapid and transient activation of numerous intracellular signaling pathways. Plays a role in neutrophil recruitment to sites of inflammation and bacterial clearance through the major serotonin metabolite 5-HIAA that acts as a physiological ligand. Stimulates lipid metabolism, thermogenic, and anti- inflammatory gene expression in adipose tissue once activated by kynurenic acid (By similarity). In macrophages, activation by lysophosphatidic acid promotes GPR35-induced signaling with a distinct transcriptional profile characterized by TNF production associated with ERK and NF-kappa-B activation. In turn, induces chemotaxis of macrophages (By similarity).
