The prostaglandin D2 receptor 1 (DP1), a G protein-coupled receptor encoded by the PTGDR gene (also termed PTGDR1), is primarily a receptor for prostaglandin D2 (PGD2). The receptor is a member of the prostaglandin receptors belonging to the subfamily A14 of rhodopsin-like receptors. Activation of DP1 by PGD2 or other cognate receptor ligands is associated with a variety of physiological and pathological responses in animal models.
