Evolutionary Origin of the P2X7 C-ter Region: Capture of an Ancient Ballast Domain by a P2X4-Like Gene in Ancient Jawed Vertebrates

P2X purinergic receptors are extracellular ATP-gated ion channel receptors present on the cell plasma membrane. P2X receptors have been found in Metazoa, fungi, amoebas, and in plants.
