EDNRA（endothelin receptor type A），癌症关联基因，基因ID：1909，这个基因编码内皮素-1的受体，内皮素-1是一种在有效和持久的血管收缩中起作用的肽这种受体与鸟嘌呤核苷酸结合（G）蛋白相结合，这种结合激活了磷脂酰肌醇钙第二信使系统该基因的多态性与偏头痛抵抗有关。选择性剪接导致多个转录变体[由RefSeq提供，2009年10月]This gene encodes the receptor for endothelin-1， a peptide that plays a role in potent and long-lasting vasoconstriction. This receptor associates with guanine-nucleotide-binding (G) proteins， and this coupling activates a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. Polymorphisms in this gene have been linked to migraine headache resistance. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq， Oct 2009]。
