Ovaj protein je član familije G protein spregnutih receptora. On je jedan od četiri receptora identifikovana za prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). Gq proteini posreduju aktivnost ovog receptora putem sistema fosfatidilinozitol-kalcijum sekundarnog glasnika. Ispitivanja na nokaut miševima sugeriraju da ovaj receptor posreduje algeziju, i učestvuje u regulaciji krvnog pritiska. Studije na miševima takođe pokazuju da ovaj gen posreduje adrenokortikotropni hormonski respons na bakterijski endotoksin.[1]
