MRGPRX2
protein-codingMAS related GPR family member X2, the group of G protein-coupled receptors, Class A orphans
Gene summary
Enables G protein-coupled receptor activity and neuropeptide binding activity. Involved in several processes, including G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; mast cell degranulation; and positive regulation of cytokinesis. Is active in plasma membrane.

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type
Statistics based on transcript NM_054030.4. Only rare variants are included.
We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.
Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

- Function
- FUNCTION: Mast cell-specific receptor for basic secretagogues, i.e. cationic amphiphilic drugs, as well as endo- or exogenous peptides, consisting of a basic head group and a hydrophobic core (PubMed:25517090). Recognizes and binds small molecules containing a cyclized tetrahydroisoquinoline (THIQ), such as non-steroidal neuromuscular blocking drugs (NMBDs), including tubocurarine and atracurium. In response to these compounds, mediates pseudo- allergic reactions characterized by histamine release, inflammation and airway contraction (By similarity). Acts as a receptor for a number of other ligands, including peptides and alkaloids, such as cortistatin-14, proadrenomedullin N-terminal peptides PAMP-12 and, at lower extent, PAMP-20, antibacterial protein LL-37, PMX-53 peptide, beta-defensins, and complanadine A. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q3KNA1, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15823563, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21441599, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22069323, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23698749, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24930830, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25517090, ECO:0000305|PubMed:12915402}.;
