Function Summary
  • Entrez Summary: N/A
  • UniProt Summary: Receptor for apelin receptor early endogenous ligand (APELA) and apelin (APLN) hormones coupled to G proteins that inhibit adenylate cyclase activity (PubMed:11090199, PubMed:25639753, PubMed:28137936). Plays a key role in early development such as gastrulation, blood vessels formation and heart morphogenesis by acting as a receptor for APELA hormone (By similarity). May promote angioblast migration toward the embryonic midline, i.e. the position of the future vessel formation, during vasculogenesis (By similarity). Promotes sinus venosus (SV)- derived endothelial cells migration into the developing heart to promote coronary blood vessel development (By similarity). Plays also a role in various processes in adults such as regulation of blood vessel formation, blood pressure, heart contractility and heart failure (PubMed:25639753, PubMed:28137936). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P79960, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q7SZP9, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9WV08, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11090199, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25639753, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28137936}.
