Purinergic receptor P2Y, G-protein coupled, 8, also known as P2RY8, is a human gene.

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the family of G-protein coupled receptors, that are preferentially activated by adenosine and uridine nucleotides. This gene is moderately expressed in undifferentiated HL60 cells, and is located on both chromosomes X and Y.
