    basic FUNCTION
  • cofactor for the cleavage and activation of PAR4 (F2RL3) by F2 (mouse)
  • thrombin activated receptor
  • activating platelets after binding thrombin
  • is a previously unknown modulator of visceral nociception
  • involved in signaling of platelet aggregation via Ca2+ mobilization and synergistic P2Y12 receptor activation
  • F2R and F2RL3 stimulate different signaling pathways in platelets and likely cooperate to mediate the complete response of the platelets to thrombin
  • is involved in sustained platelet activation, and it invokes sustained intracellular calcium response in platelets, phosphyltidylserine exposure, thrombin generation, and fibrin deposition

    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • F2RL2 cofactor for activation by thrombin
  • mediating cathepsin G dependent platelet secretion and aggregation
  • interaction between F2R and F2RL3, F2RL3 also interacts with the P2Y12 receptor on platelets to alter signaling
  • uses its anionic cluster to interact with alpha-thrombin and this interaction is important even in the presence of F2R
  • is a target of MASP1 (MASP1-induced F2RL3 activation could contribute to the development of the inflammatory reaction)
  • F2R and F2RL3 are functionally expressed in large myelinated fibre neurons, and are also expressed in small nociceptors of the peptidergic subclass, where they are able to potentiate TRPV1 activity
  • promotes cell migration via F2RL3
  • thrombin activates platelets by binding and cleaving protease-activated receptors F2R and F2RL3
  • KLK1 gain de function in tubular epithelial cells may mediate pro-inflammatory pathway and F2RL3 activation during diabetic nephropathy
  • PCTP is a regulator of platelet F2RL3 function
