P2X purinoceptor 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the P2RX2 gene.{{cite journal | vauthors = Lynch KJ, Touma E, Niforatos W, Kage KL, Burgard EC, van Biesen T, Kowaluk EA, Jarvis MF | title = Molecular and functional characterization of human P2X(2) receptors | journal = Mol Pharmacol | volume = 56 | issue = 6 | pages = 1171–81 |date=Dec 1999 | pmid = 10570044 | doi = 10.1124/mol.56.6.1171}}{{cite journal | vauthors = Brake AJ, Wagenbach MJ, Julius D | title = New structural motif for ligand-gated ion channels defined by an ionotropic ATP receptor | journal = Nature | volume = 371 | issue = 6497 | pages = 519–23 |date=Oct 1994 | pmid = 7523952 | doi = 10.1038/371519a0 | bibcode = 1994Natur.371..519B | s2cid = 4371044 }}{{cite web | title = Entrez Gene: P2RX2 purinergic receptor P2X, ligand-gated ion channel, 2| url = https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=22953}}
The product of this gene belongs to the family of purinoceptors for ATP. This receptor functions as a cation conducting ligand-gated ion channel. Binding to ATP mediates synaptic transmission between neurons and from neurons to smooth muscle. Six transcript variants encoding six distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene.
