Tbxa2r - thromboxane A2 receptor

Enables thromboxane receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to lipopolysaccharide; positive regulation of vasoconstriction; and response to testosterone. Located in acrosomal vesicle and plasma membrane. Used to study adult respiratory distress syndrome; kidney failure; thrombocytopenia; and toxic shock syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in aspirin-induced respiratory disease; asthma; and blood platelet disease. Orthologous to human TBXA2R (thromboxane A2 receptor).
