Function
Adhesion G protein-coupled receptor. In alveolar type II (ATII or AT2) cells, required for normal lung surfactant homeostasis. Modulation of both surfactant secretion and uptake by ATII cells is mediated by the downstream activation of GNAQ/GNA11 proteins and may be a consequence of increased cortical F-actin assembly induced by ADGRF5 activation.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Cell membrane (Multi-pass membrane protein)
Tissue Specificity: Expressed in lung endothelial cells and in alveolar type II (ATII) cells (at protein level). Expressed high levels in subcutaneous adipose tissue in lean individuals and at lower levels in visceral fat. Expression levels in subcutaneous adipose tissue drastically drop in obese individuals
