What this target is

Its function as UniProt states it, where in a cell the protein is found, and which cell types and tissues transcribe its gene.

Protein

AA2BR_HUMANADORA2BHomo sapiens

Adenosine receptor A2b

Receptor for adenosine. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylyl cyclase

Quoted from UniProt’s FUNCTION annotation for P29275 (reviewed).

What it acts with

STRING’s highest-confidence human functional partners. The combined score mixes several kinds of evidence, so each channel is shown separately — a partner supported by experiment is a different claim from one supported only by text mining, and for a receptor this is where its coupling appears as evidence rather than as assertion.

Expression by cell type

Single cell type RNA, the 9 highest of those the Human Protein Atlas reports for this gene. Transcript, not protein, and a cell type rather than a tissue.

  • Retinal pigment epithelial cells59.7 nCPM
  • Suprabasal keratinocytes57.3 nCPM
  • Esophageal basal cells47.4 nCPM
  • Conjunctival goblet cells45.6 nCPM

  • Respiratory secretory cells34.5 nCPM
  • Urothelial cells33.5 nCPM
  • Respiratory basal cells30.1 nCPM

Expression by tissue

The tissues this gene is enriched in, by consensus RNA. A tissue absent from this list is one the Atlas does not call specific for this gene, which is not the same as absent from it.
