Its effects on cells are mediated through specific interaction with the Prostanoid receptor FP, which is a 359-amino acid protein. Having 7 putative transmembrane domains, FP resembles the characteristic of G protein coupled receptors. Knockout studies in mice suggest that the interaction of PGF2-alpha with this receptor may initiate parturition in ovarian luteal cells and thereupon induce luteolysis.
