Preparation and Storage

Background: FFAR3/GPR41

GPR41 and GPR42 are two closely related genes that are part of a cluster of four adjacent G protein-coupled receptors(GPR40, 41, 42, and 43). There are only six nucleotide and amino acid differences between GPR41 and GPR42. GPR41 (also known as FFAR3) is a receptor for short chain fatty acids. The rank order of potency for agonists of this receptor ispropionate = pentanoate= butyrate > acetate > formate. The activity of this receptor is coupled to the formation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, intracellular Ca2+ mobilization, the activation of ERK 1/2 and inhibition of intracellular cAMP accumulation.
