Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Enables endothelin receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to gonadotropin stimulus; circulatory system development; and neuron differentiation. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including adenylate cyclase-inhibiting G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; neural crest cell development; and regulation of D-glucose transmembrane transport. Is active in cell periphery. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; branchial arch; cardiovascular system; central nervous system; and genitourinary system. Used to study mandibulofacial dysostosis with alopecia and velocardiofacial syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypertension (multiple); lung disease; mandibulofacial dysostosis with alopecia; migraine; and obstructive sleep apnea. Orthologous to human EDNRA (endothelin receptor type A).
