Normal role description: P2RY14 is a G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) that binds ligands: UDP-glucose and other UDP-sugars coupled to G-proteins. It plays a role in immune function and regulation of stem cell compartment. Mutations in this gene have been found in colon tumors.
Commentary on involvement of protein in cancer: Receptor for UDP-glucose and other UDP-sugar coupled to G-proteins. Not activated by ATP, ADP, UTP or ATP.
