[主題詞] Receptors,Formyl Peptide
[英文釋義] A family of G-protein-coupled receptors that was originally identified by its ability to bind N-formyl peptides such as N-FORMYLMETHIONINE LEUCYL-PHENYLALANINE. Since N-formyl peptides are found in MITOCHONDRIA and BACTERIA,this class of receptors is believed to play a role in mediating cellular responses to cellular damage and bacterial invasion. However,non-formylated peptide ligands have also been found for this receptor class.
