Structure

It is a member of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) family and it's well conserved in vertebrate evolution containing a canonical DRYLAVV motif in the third transmembrane sequence. It has a conserved negatively charged N-terminal extracellular peptide comprising a DY candidate sulfation site that is characteristic of many leukocyte chemoattractant receptors for positively charged polypeptides of the chemokine family.^[7]

Tissue distribution

GPR25 expression is largely restricted to lymphocytes and natural killer (NK) cells.^[7]

Function

See also: chemokine receptor and CXC chemokine receptor

It has been identified as the receptor for the chemokine-like protein CXCL17.^[7]
