EBI2

EBI2

The 7TM receptor family A's orphan member is the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) induced receptor 2 (EBI2; also known as GPR183). EBI2 is a seven-transmembrane receptor that is constitutively active. Different phylogenetic analyses have assigned EBI2 to various 7TM receptor subgroups as a target for peptide or lipid ligands. Extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) is constitutively activated by EBI2 in a pertussis toxin-insensitive manner. Following an EBV infection, B cells exhibit a 200-fold increase in EBI2 expression.

In addition to being genetically linked to autoimmune diseases like type 1 diabetes, EBI2 activation stimulates immune cell migration. EBI2 small molecule modulators can be helpful for examining how the receptor works and how it relates to human diseases.
