| Name | P2X purinoceptor 1 |
| Description | Ligand-gated ion channel with relatively high calcium permeability. Binding to ATP mediates synaptic transmission between neurons and from neurons to smooth muscle. Seems to be linked to apoptosis, by increasing the intracellular concentration of calcium in the presence of ATP, leading to programmed cell death (By similarity). |
| UniProt ID | P51575 |
| Gene | P2RX1 |
