Definition:Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) extracellular signaling activates the P2X ligand-gated ion channels that are permeable to sodium, potassium and calcium ions. There are several P2X subtypes that are involved in a range of physiological processes. ATP along with other nucleotide also engages a class of metabotropic purinergic receptors known as P2Y that couple to either the Galphaq or to G alphai subunit of heterotrimeric G proteins. ATP is the sole ligand of P2Y 11 receptor.
Synonyms:exact_synonym: ATP signaling pathway
