cannabinoid receptor 2 [Homo sapiens]
Protein Classification
G protein-coupled receptor family protein; olfactory receptor( domain architecture ID 11607435)
G protein-coupled receptor family protein is a seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor (7TM-GPCR) family protein which typically transmits an extracellular signal into the cell by the conformational rearrangement of the 7TM helices and by the subsequent binding and activation of an intracellular heterotrimeric G protein; GPCR ligands include light-sensitive compounds, odors, pheromones, hormones, and neurotransmitters; olfactory receptor plays a central role in olfaction or the sense of smell, similar to human family 6 olfactory receptors; belongs to the class A rhodopsin-like family of G protein-coupled receptors; binding of an odorant to the olfactory receptor induces a conformational change that leads to the activation of the olfactory-specific G protein (Golf)

rhodopsin receptor-like class A family of the seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor superfamily; Class A rhodopsin-like receptors constitute about 90% of all GPCRs. The class A GPCRs include the light-sensitive rhodopsin as well as receptors for biogenic amines, lipids, nucleotides, odorants, peptide hormones, and a variety of other ligands. All GPCRs have a common structural architecture comprising of seven-transmembrane (TM) alpha-helices interconnected by three extracellular and three intracellular loops. A general feature of GPCR signaling is agonist-induced conformational changes in the receptors, leading to activation of the heterotrimeric G proteins, which consist of the guanine nucleotide-binding G-alpha subunit and the dimeric G-beta-gamma subunits. The activated G proteins then bind to and activate numerous downstream effector proteins, which generate second messengers that mediate a broad range of cellular and physiological processes. Based on sequence similarity, GPCRs can be divided into six major classes: class A (rhodopsin-like family), class B (Methuselah-like, adhesion and secretin-like receptor family), class C (metabotropic glutamate receptor family), class D (fungal mating pheromone receptors), class E (cAMP receptor family), and class F (frizzled/smoothened receptor family). Nearly 800 human GPCR genes have been identified and are involved essentially in all major physiological processes. Approximately 40% of clinically marketed drugs mediate their effects through modulation of GPCR function for the treatment of a variety of human diseases including bacterial infections.

adenosine receptor subfamily, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; The adenosine receptors (or P1 receptors), a family of G protein-coupled purinergic receptors, bind adenosine as their endogenous ligand. There are four types of adenosine receptors in human, designated as A1, A2A, A2B, and A3. Each type is encoded by a different gene and has distinct functions with some overlap. For example, both A1 and A2A receptors are involved in regulating myocardial oxygen consumption and coronary blood flow in the heart, while the A2A receptor also has a broad spectrum of anti-inflammatory effects in the body. These two receptors also expressed in the brain, where they have important roles in the release of other neurotransmitters such as dopamine and glutamate, while the A2B and A3 receptors found primarily in the periphery and play important roles in inflammation and immune responses. The A1 and A3 receptors preferentially interact with G proteins of the G(i/o) family, thereby lowering the intracellular cAMP levels, whereas the A2A and A2B receptors interact with G proteins of the G(s) family, activating adenylate cyclase to elevate cAMP levels.

trace amine-associated receptors, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; The trace amine-associated receptors (TAARs) are a distinct subfamily within the class A G protein-coupled receptor family. Trace amines are endogenous amines of unknown function that have strong structural and metabolic similarity to classical monoamine neurotransmitters (serotonin, noradrenaline, adrenaline, dopamine, and histamine), which play critical roles in human and animal physiological activities such as cognition, consciousness, mood, motivation, perception, and autonomic responses. However, trace amines are found in the mammalian brain at very low concentrations compared to classical monoamines. Trace amines, including p-tyramine, beta-phenylethylamine, and tryptamine, are also thought to act as chemical messengers to exert their biological effects in vertebrates. All GPCRs have a common structural architecture comprising of seven-transmembrane (TM) alpha-helices interconnected by three extracellular and three intracellular loops. A general feature of GPCR signaling is agonist-induced conformational changes in the receptors, leading to activation of the heterotrimeric G proteins, which consist of the guanine nucleotide-binding G-alpha subunit and the dimeric G-beta-gamma subunits.

type 2 opsins in animals, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; This rhodopsin family represents the type 2 opsins found in vertebrates and invertebrates except sponge. Type 2 opsins primarily function as G protein coupled receptors and are responsible for vision as well as for circadian rhythm and pigment regulation. On the contrary, type 1 opsins such as bacteriorhodopsin and proteorhodopsin are found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic microbes, functioning as light-gated ion channels, proton pumps, sensory receptors and in other unknown functions. Although these two opsin types share seven-transmembrane domain topology and a conserved lysine reside in the seventh helix, type 1 opsins do not activate G-proteins and are not evolutionarily related to type 2. Type 2 opsins can be classified into six distinct subfamilies including the vertebrate opsins/encephalopsins, the G(o) opsins, the G(s) opsins, the invertebrate G(q) opsins, the photoisomerases, and the neuropsins.

cholecystokinin receptors and related proteins, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; This group represents four G-protein coupled receptors that are members of the RFamide receptor family, including cholecystokinin receptors (CCK-AR and CCK-BR), orexin receptors (OXR), neuropeptide FF receptors (NPFFR), and pyroglutamylated RFamide peptide receptor (QRFPR). These RFamide receptors are activated by their endogenous peptide ligands that share a common C-terminal arginine (R) and an amidated phenylanine (F) motif. CCK-AR (type A, alimentary; also known as CCK1R) is found abundantly on pancreatic acinar cells and binds only sulfated CCK-peptides with very high affinity, whereas CCK-BR (type B, brain; also known as CCK2R), the predominant form in the brain and stomach, binds CCK or gastrin and discriminates poorly between sulfated and non-sulfated peptides. CCK is implicated in regulation of digestion, appetite control, and body weight, and is involved in neurogenesis via CCK-AR. There is some evidence to support that CCK and gastrin, via their receptors, are involved in promoting cancer development and progression, acting as growth and invasion factors. Orexins (OXs; also referred to as hypocretins) are neuropeptide hormones that regulate the sleep-wake cycle and potently influence homeostatic systems regulating appetite and feeding behavior or modulating emotional responses such as anxiety or panic. OXs are synthesized as prepro-orexin (PPO) in the hypothalamus and then proteolytically cleaved into two forms of isoforms: orexin-A (OX-A) and orexin-B (OX-B). OXA is a 33 amino-acid peptide with N-terminal pyroglutamyl residue and two intramolecular disulfide bonds, whereas OXB is a 28 amino-acid linear peptide with no disulfide bonds. OX-A binds orexin receptor 1 (OX1R) with high-affinity, but also binds with somewhat low-affinity to OX2R, and signals primarily to Gq coupling, whereas OX-B shows a strong preference for the orexin receptor 2 (OX2R) and signals through Gq or Gi/o coupling. The 26RFa, also known as QRFP (Pyroglutamylated RFamide peptide), is a 26-amino acid residue peptide that exerts similar orexigenic activity including the regulation of feeding behavior in mammals. It is the ligand for G-protein coupled receptor 103 (GPR103), which is predominantly expressed in paraventricular (PVN) and ventromedial (VMH) nuclei of the hypothalamus. GPR103 shares significant protein sequence homology with orexin receptors (OX1R and OX2R), which have recently shown to produce a neuroprotective effect in Alzheimer's disease by forming a functional heterodimer with GPR103. Neuropeptide FF (NPFF) is a mammalian octapeptide that has been implicated in a wide range of physiological functions in the brain including pain sensitivity, insulin release, food intake, memory, blood pressure, and opioid-induced tolerance and hyperalgesia. The effects of NPFF are mediated through neuropeptide FF1 and FF2 receptors (NPFF1-R and NPFF2-R) which are predominantly expressed in the brain. NPFF induces pro-nociceptive effects, mainly through the NPFF1-R, and anti-nociceptive effects, mainly through the NPFF2-R.

Immunohistochemistry and double-immunofluorescence studies revealed the predominant GPR119 localization in pancreatic polypeptide (PP)-cells of islets. In addition, GPR119 expression is elevated in islets of obese hyperglycemic mice as compared to control islets, suggesting a possible involvement of this receptor in the development of obesity and diabetes. GPR119 has a significant sequence similarity with the members of the endothelial differentiation gene family. All GPCRs have a common structural architecture comprising of seven-transmembrane (TM) alpha-helices interconnected by three extracellular and three intracellular loops. A general feature of GPCR signaling is agonist-induced conformational changes in the receptors, leading to activation of the heterotrimeric G proteins, which consist of the guanine nucleotide-binding G-alpha subunit and the dimeric G-beta-gamma subunits.

histamine receptor subtypes H3R and H4R, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; This group includes histamine subtypes H3R and H4R, members of the histamine receptor family, which belong to the class A of GPCRs. Histamine plays a key role as chemical mediator and neurotransmitter in various physiological and pathophysiological processes in the central and peripheral nervous system. Histamine exerts its functions by binding to four different G protein-coupled receptors (H1-H4). The H3 and H4 receptors couple to the G(i)-proteins, which leading to the inhibition of cAMP formation. The H3R receptor functions as a presynaptic autoreceptors controlling histamine release and synthesis. The H4R plays an important role in histamine-mediated chemotaxis in mast cells and eosinophils. All GPCRs have a common structural architecture comprising of seven-transmembrane (TM) alpha-helices interconnected by three extracellular and three intracellular loops. A general feature of GPCR signaling is agonist-induced conformational changes in the receptors, leading to activation of the heterotrimeric G proteins, which consist of the guanine nucleotide-binding G-alpha subunit and the dimeric G-beta-gamma subunits. The activated G proteins then bind to and activate numerous downstream effector proteins, which generate second messengers that mediate a broad range of cellular and physiological processes.

beta-3 adrenergic receptors (adrenoceptors), member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; The beta-3 adrenergic receptor (beta-3 adrenoceptor), also known as beta-3 AR, is activated by adrenaline and plays important roles in regulating cardiac function and heart rate. The human heart contains three subtypes of the beta AR: beta-1 AR, beta-2 AR, and beta-3 AR. Beta-1 AR and beta-2 AR, which expressed at about a ratio of 70:30, are the major subtypes involved in modulating cardiac contractility and heart rate by positively stimulating the G(s) protein-adenylate cyclase-cAMP-PKA signaling pathway. In contrast, beta-3 AR produces negative inotropic effects by activating inhibitory G(i) proteins. The aberrant expression of betrayers can lead to cardiac dysfunction such as arrhythmias or heart failure. Pssm-ID: 320625 [Multi-domain] Cd Length: 302 Bit Score: 77.64 E-value: 5.39e-16

alpha-1 adrenergic receptors subtype B, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; The alpha-1 adrenergic receptors (or adrenoceptors) are a subfamily of the class A rhodopsin-like GPCRs that share a common architecture of seven transmembrane helices. This subfamily consists of three highly homologous receptor subtypes that primarily mediate smooth muscle contraction: alpha-1A, alpha-1B, and alpha-1D. Activation of alpha-1 receptors by catecholamines such as norepinephrine and epinephrine couples to the G(q) protein, which then activates the phospholipase C pathway, leading to an increase in IP3 and calcium. Consequently, the elevation of intracellular calcium concentration leads to vasoconstriction in smooth muscle of blood vessels. In addition, activation of alpha-1 receptors by phenylpropanolamine (PPA) produces anorexia and may induce appetite suppression in rats.

alpha-2 adrenergic receptors, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; The alpha-2 adrenergic receptors (or adrenoceptors) are a subfamily of the class A rhodopsin-like GPCRs that share a common architecture of seven transmembrane helices. This subfamily consists of three highly homologous receptor subtypes that have a key role in neurotransmitter release: alpha-2A, alpha-2B, and alpha-2C. In addition, a fourth subtype, alpha-2D is present in ray-finned fishes and amphibians, but is not found in humans. The alpha-2 receptors are found in both central and peripheral nervous system and serve to produce inhibitory functions through the G(i) proteins. Thus, the alpha-2 receptors inhibit adenylate cyclase, which decreases cAMP production and thereby decreases calcium influx during the action potential. Consequently, lowered levels of calcium will lead to a decrease in neurotransmitter release by negative feedback. All GPCRs have a common structural architecture comprising of seven-transmembrane (TM) alpha-helices interconnected by three extracellular and three intracellular loops. A general feature of GPCR signaling is agonist-induced conformational changes in the receptors, leading to activation of the heterotrimeric G proteins, which consist of the guanine nucleotide-binding G-alpha subunit and the dimeric G-beta-gamma subunits.

These homologous peptides of 36-amino acids in length contain a hairpin-like structural motif, which referred to as the pancreatic polypeptide fold, and function as gastrointestinal hormones and neurotransmitters. The PR4 receptor also shares strong sequence homology to the mammalian tachykinin receptors (NK1R, NK2R, and NK3R), whose endogenous ligands are substance P (SP), neurokinin A (NKA), and neurokinin B (NKB), respectively.

neuropeptide Y receptors and related proteins, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; NPY is a 36-amino acid peptide neurotransmitter with a C-terminal tyrosine amide residue that is widely distributed in the brain and the autonomic nervous system of many mammalian species. NPY exerts its functions through five, G-protein coupled receptor subtypes including NPY1R, NPY2R, NPY4R, NPY5R, and NPY6R; however, NPY6R is not functional in humans. NYP receptors are also activated by its two other family members, peptide YY (PYY) and pancreatic polypeptide (PP). They typically couple to Gi or Go proteins, which leads to a decrease in adenylate cyclase activity, thereby decreasing intracellular cAMP levels, and are involved in diverse physiological roles including appetite regulation, circadian rhythm, and anxiety. Also included in this subgroup is prolactin-releasing peptide (PrRP) receptor (previously known as GPR10), which is activated by its endogenous ligand PrRP, a neuropeptide possessing C-terminal Arg-Phe-amide motif. There are two active isoforms of PrRP in mammals: one consists of 20 amino acid residues (PrRP-20) and the other consists of 31 amino acid residues (PrRP-31). PrRP receptor shows significant sequence homology to the NPY receptors, and a micromolar level of NPY can bind and completely inhibit the PrRP-evoked intracellular calcium response in PrRP receptor-expressing cells, suggesting that the PrRP receptor shares a common ancestor with the NPY receptors.

MCRs bind a group of pituitary peptide hormones known as melanocortins, which include adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and the different isoforms of melanocyte-stimulating hormones. There are five known subtypes of the MCR subfamily. MC1R is involved in regulating skin pigmentation and hair color. ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone) is the only endogenous ligand for MC2R, which shows low sequence similarity with other melanocortin receptors. Mutations in MC2R cause familial glucocorticoid deficiency type 1, in which patients have elevated plasma ACTH and low cortisol levels. MC3R is expressed in many parts of the brain and peripheral tissues and involved in the regulation of energy homeostasis. MC4R is expressed primarily in the central nervous system and involved in both eating behavior and sexual function.

There is no 5-HT1C receptor subtype, as it has been reclassified as 5-HT2C receptor. The 5-HT5A and 5-HT5B receptors have been cloned from rat and mouse, but only the 5-HT5A isoform has been identified in human because of the presence of premature stop codons in the human 5-HT5B gene, which prevents a functional receptor from being expressed. The 5-HT7 receptor is coupled to Gs, which positively stimulates adenylate cyclase activity, leading to increased intracellular cAMP formation and calcium influx. In the CNS, serotonin is involved in the regulation of appetite, mood, sleep, cognition, learning and memory, as well as implicated in neurologic disorders such as migraine, schizophrenia, and depression.

These five major bioactive prostanoids acts as mediators or modulators in a wide range of physiological and pathophysiological processes within the kidney and play important roles in inflammation, platelet aggregation, and vasoconstriction/relaxation, among many others. They act locally by preferentially interacting with G protein-coupled receptors designated DP, EP. FP, IP, and TP, respectively. The phylogenetic tree suggests that the prostanoid receptors can be grouped into two major branches: G(s)-coupled (DP1, EP2, EP4, and IP) and G(i)- (EP3) or G(q)-coupled (EP1, FP, and TP), forming three clusters.

The TKs are characterized by a common five-amino acid C-terminal sequence, Phe-X-Gly-Leu-Met-NH2, where X is a hydrophobic residue. The three major mammalian tachykinins are substance P (SP), neurokinin A (NKA), and neurokinin B (NKB). The physiological actions of tachykinins are mediated through three types of receptors: neurokinin receptor type 1 (NK1R), NK2R, and NK3R. SP is a high-affinity endogenous ligand for NK1R, which interacts with the Gq protein and activates phospholipase C, leading to elevation of intracellular calcium. NK2R is a high-affinity receptor for NKA, the tachykinin neuropeptide substance K. SP and NKA are found in the enteric nervous system and mediate in the regulation of gastrointestinal motility, secretion, vascular permeability, and pain perception. NK3R is activated by its high-affinity ligand, NKB, which is primarily involved in the central nervous system and plays a critical role in the regulation of gonadotropin hormone release and the onset of puberty.

DrmFMRFa-R binds with high affinity to FMRFamide and intrinsic FMRFamide-related peptides. FMRFamide is a neuropeptide from the family of FMRFamide-related peptides (FaRPs), which all containing a C-terminal RFamide (Arg-Phe-NH2) motif and have diverse functions in the central and peripheral nervous systems. FMRFamide is an important neuropeptide in many types of invertebrates such as insects, nematodes, molluscs, and worms. In invertebrates, the FMRFamide-related peptides are involved in the regulation of heart rate, blood pressure, gut motility, feeding behavior, and reproduction. On the other hand, in vertebrates such as mice, they play a role in the modulation of morphine-induced antinociception. Orphan receptors GPR139 and GPR142 are very closely related G protein-coupled receptors, but they have different expression patterns in the brain and in other tissues. These receptors couple to inhibitory G proteins and activate phospholipase C. Studies suggested that dimer formation may be required for their proper function. GPR142 is predominantly expressed in pancreatic beta-cells and mediates enhancement of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, whereas GPR139 is mostly expressed in the brain and is suggested to play a role in the control of locomotor activity.

seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor superfamily; This hierarchical evolutionary model represents the seven-transmembrane (7TM) receptors, often referred to as G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), which transmit physiological signals from the outside of the cell to the inside via G proteins. GPCRs constitute the largest known superfamily of transmembrane receptors across the three kingdoms of life that respond to a wide variety of extracellular stimuli including peptides, lipids, neurotransmitters, amino acids, hormones, and sensory stimuli such as light, smell and taste. All GPCRs share a common structural architecture comprising of seven-transmembrane (TM) alpha-helices interconnected by three extracellular and three intracellular loops. A general feature of GPCR signaling is agonist-induced conformational changes in the receptors, leading to activation of the heterotrimeric G proteins, which consist of the guanine nucleotide-binding G-alpha subunit and the dimeric G-beta-gamma subunits. The activated G proteins then bind to and activate numerous downstream effector proteins, which generate second messengers that mediate a broad range of cellular and physiological processes. However, some 7TM receptors, such as the type 1 microbial rhodopsins, do not activate G proteins. Based on sequence similarity, GPCRs can be divided into six major classes: class A (the rhodopsin-like family), class B (the Methuselah-like, adhesion and secretin-like receptor family), class C (the metabotropic glutamate receptor family), class D (the fungal mating pheromone receptors), class E (the cAMP receptor family), and class F (the frizzled/smoothened receptor family). Nearly 800 human GPCR genes have been identified and are involved essentially in all major physiological processes. Approximately 40% of clinically marketed drugs mediate their effects through modulation of GPCR function for the treatment of a variety of human diseases including bacterial infections.

The mAChR family consists of 5 subtypes M1-M5, which can be further divided into two major groups according to their G-protein coupling preference. The M1, M3 and M5 receptors selectively interact with G proteins of the G(q/11) family, whereas the M2 and M4 receptors preferentially link to the G(i/o) types of G proteins.

The TKs are characterized by a common five-amino acid C-terminal sequence, Phe-X-Gly-Leu-Met-NH2, where X is a hydrophobic residue. The three major mammalian tachykinins are substance P (SP), neurokinin A (NKA), and neurokinin B (NKB). The physiological actions of tachykinins are mediated through three types of receptors: neurokinin receptor type 1 (NK1R), NK2R, and NK3R. SP is a high-affinity endogenous ligand for NK1R, which interacts with the Gq protein and activates phospholipase C, leading to elevation of intracellular calcium. NK2R is a high-affinity receptor for NKA, the tachykinin neuropeptide substance K. SP and NKA are found in the enteric nervous system and mediate in the regulation of gastrointestinal motility, secretion, vascular permeability, and pain perception. NK3R is activated by its high-affinity ligand, NKB, which is primarily involved in the central nervous system and plays a critical role in the regulation of gonadotropin hormone release and the onset of puberty.

classical and atypical chemokine receptors, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; Chemokines are principal regulators for leukocyte trafficking, recruitment, and activation. Chemokine family membership is defined on the basis of sequence homology and on the presence of variations on a conserved cysteine motif, which allows the family to further divide into four subfamilies (CC, CXC, XC, and CX3C). Chemokines interact with seven-transmembrane receptors which are typically coupled to G protein for signaling. Currently, there are ten known receptors for CC chemokines, seven for CXC chemokines, and single receptors for the XC and CX3C chemokines. In addition to these classical chemokine receptors, there exists a subfamily of atypical chemokine receptors (ACKRs) that are unable to couple to G-proteins and, instead, they preferentially mediate beta-arrestin dependent processes, such as receptor internalization, after ligand binding. The classical chemokine receptors contain a conserved DRYLAIV motif in the second intracellular loop, which is required for G-protein coupling. However, the ACKRs lack this conserved motif and fail to couple to G-proteins and induce classical GPCR signaling. Five receptors have been identified for the ACKR family, including CC-chemokine receptors like 1 and 2 (CCRL1 and CCRL2), CXCR7, Duffy antigen receptor for chemokine (DARC), and D6. Both ACKR1 (DARC) and ACKR3 (CXCR7) show low sequence homology to the classic chemokine receptors. Pssm-ID: 341319 [Multi-domain] Cd Length: 278 Bit Score: 58.38 E-value: 1.31e-09

Histamine plays a key role as chemical mediator and neurotransmitter in various physiological and pathophysiological processes in the central and peripheral nervous system. Histamine exerts its functions by binding to four different G protein-coupled receptors (H1-H4). The H3 and H4 receptors couple to the G(i)-proteins, which leading to the inhibition of cAMP formation. The H3R receptor functions as a presynaptic autoreceptors controlling histamine release and synthesis. The H4R plays an important role in histamine-mediated chemotaxis in mast cells and eosinophils.

G protein-coupled bile acid receptor 1, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; The G-protein coupled bile acid receptor GPBAR1 is also known as BG37, TGR5 (Takeda G-protein-coupled receptor 5), M-BAR (membrane-type receptor for bile acids), and GPR131. GPBAR1 is highly expressed in the gastrointestinal tract, but also found at many other tissues including liver, colon, heart, skeletal muscle, and brown adipose tissue. GPBAR1 functions as a membrane-bound receptor specific for bile acids, which are the end products of cholesterol metabolism that facilitate digestion and absorption of lipids or fat-soluble vitamins. Bile acids act as liver-specific metabolic signaling molecules and stimulate liver regeneration by activating GPBAR1 and nuclear receptors such as the farnesoid X receptor (FXR). Upon bile acids binding, GPBAR1 activation causes release of the G-alpha(s) subunit and activation of adenylate cyclase. The increase in intracellular cAMP level then stimulates the expression of many genes via the PKA-mediated phosphorylation of cAMP-response element binding protein (CREB). Thus, GPAR1-signalling exerts various biological effects in immune cells, liver, and metabolic tissues. For example, GPBAR1 activation leads to enhanced energy expenditure in brown adipose tissue and skeletal muscle; stimulation of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) production in enteroendocrine L-cells; and inhibition of pro-inflammatory cytokine production in macrophages and attenuation of atherosclerosis development. GPBAR1 is a member of the class A rhodopsin-like family of GPCRs, which comprises receptors for hormones, neurotransmitters, sensory stimuli, and a variety of other ligands.

P2Y8 (or P2RY8) expression is often increased in leukemia patients, and it plays a role in the pathogenesis of acute leukemia. P2Y8 is phylogenetically closely related to the protease-activated receptors (PARs), which are activated by serine proteases such as thrombin, trypsin, and tryptase. These proteases cleave the extracellular domain of the receptor to form a new N-terminus, which in turn functions as a tethered ligand. The newly-formed tethered ligand binds intramolecularly to activate the receptor and triggers G-protein binding and intracellular signaling. Four different types of the protease-activated receptors have been identified (PAR1-4) and are predominantly expressed in platelets. PAR1, PAR3, and PAR4 are activated by thrombin, whereas PAR2 is activated by trypsin. The PARs are known to couple with several G-proteins including Gi (cAMP inhibitory), G12/13 (Rho and Ras activation), and Gq (calcium signaling) to activate downstream signaling messengers which induces numerous cellular and physiological effects.

Ecdysis-triggering hormones are vital regulatory signals that govern the stereotypic physiological sequence leading to cuticle shedding in insects. Thus, the ETH signaling system has been a target for the design of more sophisticated insect-selective pest control strategies. Two subtypes of ecdysis-triggering hormone receptor were identified in Drosophila melanogaster. Blood-borne ecdysis-triggering hormone (ETH) activates the behavioral sequence through direct actions on the central nervous system. In insects, ecdysis is thought to be controlled by the interaction between peptide hormones; in particular between ecdysis-triggering hormone (ETH) from the periphery and eclosion hormone (EH) and crustacean cardioactive peptide (CCAP) from the central nervous system.

The TKs are characterized by a common five-amino acid C-terminal sequence, Phe-X-Gly-Leu-Met-NH2, where X is a hydrophobic residue. The three major mammalian tachykinins are substance P (SP), neurokinin A (NKA), and neurokinin B (NKB).

serotonin receptor subtypes 1B and 1D, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; The 5-HT1 receptors, one of 14 mammalian 5-HT receptors, is a member of the class A of GPCRs and is activated by the endogenous neurotransmitter and peripheral signal mediator serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT). The 5-HT1 receptors mediate inhibitory neurotransmission by coupling to G proteins of the G(i/o) family, which lead to a decrease in adenylate cyclase activity, thereby decreasing intracellular cAMP levels and calcium influx. The 5-HT1 receptor subfamily includes 5 subtypes: 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, 5-HT1D, 5-HT1E, and 5-HT1F. There is no 5-HT1C receptor subtype, as it has been reclassified as the 5-HT2C receptor. In the CNS, serotonin is involved in the regulation of appetite, mood, sleep, cognition, learning and memory, as well as implicated in neurologic disorders such as migraine, schizophrenia, and depression.

angiotesin receptor family and its related G protein-coupled receptors, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; This group includes the angiotensin receptors, the bradykinin receptors, apelin receptor as well as putative G-protein coupled receptors (GPR15 and GPR25). Angiotensin II (Ang II), the main effector in the renin-angiotensin system, plays a crucial role in the regulation of cardiovascular homeostasis through its type 1 (AT1) and type 2 (AT2) receptors. Ang II contributes to cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension and atherosclerosis via AT1R activation. Ang II increases blood pressure through Gq-mediated activation of phospholipase C, resulting in phosphoinositide (PI) hydrolysis and increased intracellular calcium levels. Through the AT2 receptor, Ang II counteracts the vasoconstrictor action of AT1R and thereby induces vasodilation, sodium excretion, and reduction of blood pressure. Bradykinins (BK) are pro-inflammatory peptides that mediate various vascular and pain responses to tissue injury through its B1 and B2 receptors. Apelin (APJ) receptor binds the endogenous peptide ligands, apelin and Toddler/Elabela. APJ is an adipocyte-derived hormone that is ubiquitously expressed throughout the human body, and Toddler/Elabela is a short secretory peptide that is required for normal cardiac development in zebrafish. Activation of APJ receptor plays key roles in diverse physiological processes including vasoconstriction and vasodilation, cardiac muscle contractility, angiogenesis, and regulation of water balance and food intake. Orphan receptors, GPR15 and GPR25, share strong sequence homology to the angiotensin II type AT1 and AT2 receptors. Pssm-ID: 341320 [Multi-domain] Cd Length: 284 Bit Score: 55.08 E-value: 1.61e-08

These receptors share significant sequence homology with each other, suggesting that they have a common evolutionary origin. Vasopressin, also known as arginine vasopressin or anti-diuretic hormone, is a neuropeptide synthesized in the hypothalamus. The actions of vasopressin are mediated by the interaction of this hormone with three tissue-specific subtypes: V1AR, V1BR, and V2R. Although vasopressin differs from oxytocin by only two amino acids, they have divergent physiological functions. Vasopressin is involved in regulating osmotic and cardiovascular homeostasis, whereas oxytocin plays an important role in the uterus during childbirth and in lactation. GnRHR, also known as luteinizing hormone releasing hormone receptor (LHRHR), plays an central role in vertebrate reproductive function; its activation by binding to GnRH leads to the release of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) from the pituitary gland. Neuropeptide S (NPS) promotes arousal and anxiolytic-like effects by activating its cognate receptor NPSR. NPSR has also been associated with asthma and allergy.

urotensin-II receptor, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; The urotensin-II receptor (UII-R, also known as the hypocretin receptor) is a member of the class A rhodopsin-like G-protein coupled receptors, which binds the peptide hormone urotensin-II. Urotensin II (UII) is a vasoactive somatostatin-like or cortistatin-like peptide hormone. However, despite the apparent structural similarity to these peptide hormones, they are not homologous to UII. Urotensin II was first identified in fish spinal cord, but later found in humans and other mammals. In fish, UII is secreted at the back part of the spinal cord, in a neurosecretory centre called uroneurapophysa, and is involved in the regulation of the renal and cardiovascular systems. In mammals, urotensin II is the most potent mammalian vasoconstrictor identified to date and causes contraction of arterial blood vessels, including the thoracic aorta. The urotensin II receptor is a rhodopsin-like G-protein coupled receptor, which binds urotensin-II. The receptor was previously known as GPR14, or sensory epithelial neuropeptide-like receptor (SENR). The UII receptor is expressed in the CNS (cerebellum and spinal cord), skeletal muscle, pancreas, heart, endothelium and vascular smooth muscle. It is involved in the pathophysiological control of cardiovascular function and may also influence CNS and endocrine functions. Binding of urotensin II to the receptor leads to activation of phospholipase C, through coupling to G(q/11) family proteins. The resulting increase in intracellular calcium may cause the contraction of vascular smooth muscle. Pssm-ID: 320130 [Multi-domain] Cd Length: 282 Bit Score: 50.90 E-value: 3.54e-07

mas-related G protein-coupled receptors, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; The Mas-related G-protein coupled receptor (Mrgpr) family constitutes a group of orphan receptors exclusively expressed in nociceptive primary sensory neurons and mast cells in the skin. Members of the Mrgpr family have been implicated in the modulation of nociception, pruritus (itching), and mast cell degranulation. The Mrgpr family in rodents and humans contains more than 50 members that can be grouped into 9 distinct subfamilies: MrgprA, B, C (MrgprX1), D, E, F, G, H (GPR90), and the primate-specific MrgprX subfamily. Some Mrgprs can be activated by endogenous ligands such as beta-alanine, adenine (a cell metabolite and potential transmitter), RF-amide related peptides, or salusin-beta (a bioactive peptide). However, the effects of these agonists are not clearly understood, and the physiological role of the individual receptor family members remains to be determined. Also included in this family is Mas-related G-protein coupled receptor 1-like (MAS1L) which is only found in primates. The angiotensin-II metabolite angiotensin is an endogenous ligand for MAS1L.

Pharmacological studies have shown that relaxin-3 (R3) is a high-affinity endogenous ligand for GPR135. R3 has recently been identified as a new member of the insulin/relaxin family of peptide hormones and is exclusively expressed in the brain neurons. In addition to GPR135, R3 also acts as an agonist for GPR142, a pseudogene in the rat, and can activate LGR7 (leucine repeat-containing G-protein receptor-7), which is the main receptor for relaxin-1 (R1) and relaxin-2 (R2). While R1 and R2 are hormones primarily associated with reproduction and pregnancy, R3 is involved in neuroendocrine and sensory processing.

anaphylatoxin receptors and related G protein-coupled chemokine receptors, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; This subfamily of G-protein coupled receptors includes anaphylatoxin receptors, formyl peptide receptors (FPR), prostaglandin D2 receptor 2, GPR1, and related chemokine receptors. The anaphylatoxin receptors are a group of G-protein coupled receptors that bind anaphylatoxins. The members of this group include C3a and C5a receptors. The formyl peptide receptors (FPRs) are chemoattractant GPCRs that involved in mediating immune responses to infection. They are expressed mainly on polymorphonuclear and mononuclear phagocytes and bind N-formyl-methionyl peptides (FMLP), which are derived from the mitochondrial proteins of ruptured host cells or invading pathogens. Chemokine receptor-like 1 (also known as chemerin receptor 23) is a GPCR for the chemoattractant adipokine chemerin, also known as retinoic acid receptor responder protein 2 (RARRES2), and for the omega-3 fatty acid derived molecule resolvin E1. Interaction with chemerin induces activation of the MAPK and PI3K signaling pathways leading to downstream functional effects, such as a decrease in immune responses, stimulation of adipogenesis, and angiogenesis. On the other hand, resolvin E1 negatively regulates the cytokine production in macrophages by reducing the activation of MAPK1/3 and NF-kB pathways. Prostaglandin D2 receptor, also known as CRTH2, is a chemoattractant G-protein coupled receptor expressed on T helper type 2 cells that binds prostaglandin D2 (PGD2). PGD2 functions as a mast cell-derived mediator to trigger asthmatic responses and also causes vasodilation. PGD2 exerts its inflammatory effects by binding to two G-protein coupled receptors, the D-type prostanoid receptor (DP) and PD2R2 (CRTH2). PD2R2 couples to the G protein G(i/o) type which leads to a reduction in intracellular cAMP levels and an increase in intracellular calcium. GPR1 is an orphan receptor that can be activated by the leukocyte chemoattractant chemerin, thereby suggesting that some of the anti-inflammatory actions of chemerin may be mediated through GPR1.

VA opsins are localized in the inner retina and the brain in teleosts. The vertebrate non-visual opsin family includes pinopsins, parapinopsin, VA (vertebrate ancient) opsins, and parietopsins. These non-visual opsins are expressed in various extraretinal tissues and/or in non-rod, non-cone retinal cells. They are thought to be involved in light-dependent physiological functions such as photo-entrainment of circadian rhythm, photoperiodicity, and body color change. The VA opsins belong the class A of the G protein-coupled receptors and possess seven-transmembrane (TM) alpha-helices interconnected by three extracellular and three intracellular loops.

G protein-coupled receptor 84 and similar proteins, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; GPR84, also known as the inflammation-related G-Protein coupled receptor EX33, is a receptor for medium-chain free fatty acid (FFA) with carbon chain lengths of C9 to C14. Among these medium-chain FFAs, capric acid (C10:0), undecanoic acid (C11:0), and lauric acid (C12:0) are the most potent endogenous agonists of GPR84, whereas short-chain and long-chain saturated and unsaturated FFAs do not activate this receptor. GPR84 contains a [G/N]RY-motif instead of the highly conserved Asp-Arg-Tyr (DRY) motif found in the third transmembrane helix (TM3) of the rhodopsin-like class A receptors and important for efficient G protein-coupled signal transduction. All GPCRs have a common structural architecture comprising of seven-transmembrane (TM) alpha-helices interconnected by three extracellular and three intracellular loops. A general feature of GPCR signaling is agonist-induced conformational changes in the receptors, which then activate the heterotrimeric G proteins. In the case of GPR84, activation of the receptor couples to a pertussis toxin sensitive G(i/o)-protein pathway. GPR84 knockout mice showed increased Th2 cytokine production including IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13 compared to wild-type mice. It has been also shown that activation of GPR84 augments lipopolysaccharide-stimulated IL-8 production in polymorphonuclear leukocytes and TNF-alpha production in macrophages, suggesting that GPR84 may function as a proinflammatory receptor.

prolactin-releasing peptide receptor, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; Prolactin-releasing peptide (PrRP) receptor (previously known as GPR10) is expressed in the central nervous system with the highest levels located in the anterior pituitary and is activated by its endogenous ligand PrRP, a neuropeptide possessing a C-terminal Arg-Phe-amide motif. There are two active isoforms of PrRP in mammals: one consists of 20 amino acids (PrRP-20) and the other consists of 31 amino acids (PrRP-31), where PrRP-20 is a C-terminal fragment of PrRP-31. Binding of PrRP to the receptor coupled to G(i/o) proteins activates the extracellular signal-related kinase (ERK) and it can also couple to G(q) protein leading to an increase in intracellular calcium and activation of c-Jun N-terminal protein kinase (JNK). The PrRP receptor shares significant sequence homology with the neuropeptide Y (NPY) receptor, and micromolar levels of NPY can bind and completely inhibit the PrRP-evoked intracellular calcium response in PrRP receptor-expressing cells, suggesting that the PrRP receptor shares a common ancestor with the NPY receptors. PrRP has been shown to reduce food intake and body weight and modify body temperature when administered in rats. It also has been shown to decrease circulating growth hormone levels by activating somatostatin-secreting neurons in the hypothalamic periventricular nucleus.

neuromedin-K receptor, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; The neuromedin-K receptor (NKR), also known as tachykinin receptor 3 (TACR3) or neurokinin B receptor or NK3R, is a G-protein coupled receptor that specifically binds to neurokinin B. The tachykinins (TKs) act as excitatory transmitters on neurons and cells in the gastrointestinal tract. The TKs are characterized by a common five-amino acid C-terminal sequence, Phe-X-Gly-Leu-Met-NH2, where X is a hydrophobic residue. The three major mammalian tachykinins are substance P (SP), neurokinin A (NKA), and neurokinin B (NKB). The physiological actions of tachykinins are mediated through three types of receptors: neurokinin receptor type 1 (NK1R), NK2R, and NK3R. NK3R is activated by its high-affinity ligand, NKB, which is primarily involved in the central nervous system and plays a critical role in the regulation of gonadotropin hormone release and the onset of puberty.

serotonin receptor subtype 5, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; 5-HT5 receptor, one of 14 mammalian 5-HT receptors, is activated by the neurotransmitter and peripheral signal mediator serotonin (also known as 5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT). The 5-HT5A and 5-HT5B receptors have been cloned from rat and mouse, but only the 5-HT5A isoform has been identified in human because of the presence of premature stop codons in the human 5-HT5B gene, which prevents a functional receptor from being expressed. 5-HT5 receptors mediate inhibitory neurotransmission by coupling to G proteins of the G(i/0) family, which lead to a decrease in adenylate cyclase activity, thereby decreasing intracellular cAMP levels and calcium influx. In the CNS, serotonin is involved in the regulation of appetite, mood, sleep, cognition, learning and memory, as well as implicated in neurologic disorders such as migraine, schizophrenia, and depression.

histamine subtype H1 receptor, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; This group includes histamine receptor subtype H1R, a member of histamine receptor family, which belongs to the class A of GPCRs. Histamine plays a key role as chemical mediator and neurotransmitter in various physiological and pathophysiological processes in the central and peripheral nervous system. Histamine exerts its functions by binding to four different G protein-coupled receptors (H1-H4). H1R selectively interacts with the G(q)-type G protein that activates phospholipase C and the phosphatidylinositol pathway. Antihistamines, a widely used anti-allergy medication, act on the H1 subtype and produce drowsiness as a side effect. All GPCRs have a common structural architecture comprising of seven-transmembrane (TM) alpha-helices interconnected by three extracellular and three intracellular loops. A general feature of GPCR signaling is agonist-induced conformational changes in the receptors, leading to activation of the heterotrimeric G proteins, which consist of the guanine nucleotide-binding G-alpha subunit and the dimeric G-beta-gamma subunits.

Expression of CXCR1 and CXCR2 is strictly controlled in neutrophils by external stimuli such as lipopolysaccharide (LPS), tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, Toll-like receptor agonists, and nitric oxide. CXCL8 (formerly known as interleukin-8) binds with high-affinity and activates both receptors. CXCR1 also binds CXCL7 (neutrophil-activating protein-2), whereas CXCR2 non-selectively binds to all seven ELR-positive chemokines (CXCL1-7). Chemokines are principal regulators for leukocyte trafficking, recruitment, and activation. Chemokine family membership is defined on the basis of sequence homology and on the presence of variations on a conserved cysteine motif, which allows the family to further divide into four subfamilies (CC, CXC, XC, and CX3C). Chemokines interact with seven-transmembrane receptors which are typically coupled to G protein for signaling. Currently, there are ten known receptors for CC chemokines, seven for CXC chemokines, and single receptors for the XC and CX3C chemokines.

They are very highly conserved G protein-coupled receptors throughout vertebrate evolution, however no endogenous ligands have yet been identified. SREB2 is greatly expressed in brain regions involved in psychiatric disorders and cognition, such as the hippocampal dentate gyrus. Genetic studies in both humans and mice have shown that SREB2 influences brain size and negatively regulates hippocampal adult neurogenesis and neurogenesis-dependent cognitive function, all of which are suggesting a potential link between SREB2 and schizophrenia.

olfactory receptor subfamily 52I and related proteins, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; This group includes human olfactory receptor subfamily 52I and related proteins in other mammals and sauropsids. Olfactory receptors (ORs) play a central role in olfaction, the sense of smell. ORs belong to the class A rhodopsin-like family of G protein-coupled receptors and constitute the largest multigene family in mammals of approximately 1,000 genes. More than 60% of human ORs are non-functional pseudogenes compared to only about 20% in mouse. Each OR can recognize structurally similar odorants, and a single odorant can be detected by several ORs. Binding of an odorant to the olfactory receptor induces a conformational change that leads to the activation of the olfactory-specific G protein (Golf). The G protein (Golf and/or Gs) in turn stimulates adenylate cyclase to make cAMP. The cAMP opens cyclic nucleotide-gated ion channels, which allow the influx of calcium and sodium ions, resulting in depolarization of the olfactory receptor neuron and triggering an action potential which transmits this information to the brain. A consensus nomenclature system based on evolutionary divergence is used here to classify the olfactory receptor family. The nomenclature begins with the root name OR, followed by an integer representing a family, a letter denoting a subfamily, and an integer representing the individual gene within the subfamily.

Like gastrin, CCK is a naturally-occurring linear peptide that is synthesized as a preprohormone, then proteolytically cleaved to form a family of peptides with the common C-terminal sequence (Gly-Trp-Met-Asp-Phe-NH2), which is required for full biological activity. CCK-AR (type A, alimentary; also known as CCK1R) is found abundantly on pancreatic acinar cells and binds only sulfated CCK-peptides with very high affinity, whereas CCK-BR (type B, brain; also known as CCK2R), the predominant form in the brain and stomach, binds CCK or gastrin and discriminates poorly between sulfated and non-sulfated peptides. CCK is implicated in regulation of digestion, appetite control, and body weight, and is involved in neurogenesis via CCK-AR. There is some evidence to support that CCK and gastrin, via their receptors, are involved in promoting cancer development and progression, acting as growth and invasion factors.

G protein-coupled receptor 88, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; GPR88, an orphan G protein-coupled receptor, is predominantly and almost exclusively expressed within medium spiny neurons (MSNs) of the brain's striatum in both human and rodents; thus it is also called Striatum-specific GPCR (STRG). The striatum is known to involve in motor coordination, reward-based decision making, and response learning. GPR88 is shown to co-localize with both dopamine D1 and D2 receptors and displays the highest sequence similarity to receptors for biogenic amines such as dopamine and serotonin. GPR88 knockout mice showed abnormal behaviors observed in schizophrenia, such as disrupted sensorimotor gating, increased stereotypic behavior and locomotor activity in response to treatment with dopaminergic compounds such as apomorphine and amphetamine, respectively, suggesting a role for GPR88 in dopaminergic signaling. Furthermore, the transcriptional profiling studies showed that GPR88 expression is altered in a number of psychiatric disorders such as depression, drug addiction, bipolar and schizophrenia, providing further evidence that GPR88 plays an important role in CNS signaling pathways related to psychiatric disorder. All GPCRs have a common structural architecture comprising of seven-transmembrane (TM) alpha-helices interconnected by three extracellular and three intracellular loops. A general feature of GPCR signaling is agonist-induced conformational changes in the receptors, leading to activation of the heterotrimeric G proteins, which consist of the guanine nucleotide-binding G-alpha subunit and the dimeric G-beta-gamma subunits. The activated G proteins then bind to and activate numerous downstream effector proteins, which generate second messengers that mediate a broad range of cellular and physiological processes.

Disruption or replacement of residues in the conserved heptapeptide region can result in the reduced ability of NMU to stimulate smooth-muscle contraction. Two G-protein coupled receptor subtypes, NMU-R1 and NMU-R2, with a distinct expression pattern, have been identified to bind NMU. NMU-R1 is expressed primarily in the peripheral nervous system, while NMU-R2 is mainly found in the central nervous system. Neuromedin S, a 36 amino-acid neuropeptide that shares a conserved C-terminal heptapeptide sequence with NMU, is a highly potent and selective NMU-R2 agonist. Pharmacological studies have shown that both NMU and NMS inhibit food intake and reduce body weight, and that NMU increases energy expenditure.

orphan G protein-coupled receptor 161, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; GPR161, an orphan GPCR, is a negative regulator of Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling, which promotes the processing of zinc finger protein GLI3 into its transcriptional repressor form (GLI3R) during neural tube development. In the absence of Shh, this proteolytic processing is normally mediated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA). GPR161 is recruited to primary cilia by a mechanism depends on TULP3 (tubby-related protein 3) and the intraflagellar complex A (IFT-A). Moreover, Gpr161 knockout mice show phenotypes observed in Tulp3/IFT-A mutants, and cause increased Shh signaling in the neural tube. Taken together, GPR161 negatively regulates the PKA-dependent GLI3 processing in the absence of Shh signal by coupling to G(s) protein, which causes activation of adenylate cyclase, elevated cAMP levels, and activation of PKA. Conversely, in the presence of Shh, GPR161 is removed from the cilia by internalization into the endosomal recycling compartment, leading to downregulation of its activity and thereby allowing Shh signaling to proceed. In addition, GPR161 is over-expressed in triple-negative breast cancer (lacking estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) expression) and correlates with poor prognosis. Mutations of GPR161 have also been implicated as a novel cause for pituitary stalk interruption syndrome (PSIS), a rare congenital disease of the pituitary gland. GPR161 is a member of the class A family of GPCRs, which contains receptors for hormones, neurotransmitters, sensory stimuli, and a variety of other ligands. All GPCRs have a common structural architecture comprising of seven-transmembrane (TM) alpha-helices interconnected by three extracellular and three intracellular loops.

Olfactory receptors (ORs) play a central role in olfaction, the sense of smell. ORs belong to the class A rhodopsin-like family of G protein-coupled receptors and constitute the largest multigene family in mammals of approximately 1,000 genes. More than 60% of human ORs are non-functional pseudogenes compared to only about 20% in mouse. Each OR can recognize structurally similar odorants, and a single odorant can be detected by several ORs. Binding of an odorant to the olfactory receptor induces a conformational change that leads to the activation of the olfactory-specific G protein (Golf). The G protein (Golf and/or Gs) in turn stimulates adenylate cyclase to make cAMP. The cAMP opens cyclic nucleotide-gated ion channels, which allow the influx of calcium and sodium ions, resulting in depolarization of the olfactory receptor neuron and triggering an action potential which transmits this information to the brain. A consensus nomenclature system based on evolutionary divergence is used here to classify the olfactory receptor family. The nomenclature begins with the root name OR, followed by an integer representing a family, a letter denoting a subfamily, and an integer representing the individual gene within the subfamily.

The tachykinins are widely distributed throughout the mammalian central and peripheral nervous systems and act as excitatory transmitters on neurons and cells in the gastrointestinal tract. The TKs are characterized by a common five-amino acid C-terminal sequence, Phe-X-Gly-Leu-Met-NH2, where X is a hydrophobic residue. The three major mammalian tachykinins are substance P (SP), neurokinin A (NKA), and neurokinin B (NKB). The physiological actions of tachykinins are mediated through three types of receptors: neurokinin receptor type 1 (NK1R), NK2R, and NK3R. SP is a high-affinity endogenous ligand for NK1R, which interacts with the Gq protein and activates phospholipase C, leading to elevation of intracellular calcium. NK2R is a high-affinity receptor for NKA, the tachykinin neuropeptide substance K. SP and NKA are found in the enteric nervous system and mediate the regulation of gastrointestinal motility, secretion, vascular permeability, and pain perception.

Members of this subgroup contain the highly conserved Asp-Arg-Tyr/Phe (DRY/F) motif found in the third transmembrane helix (TM3) of the rhodopsin-like class A receptors which is important for efficient G protein-coupled signal transduction. All GPCRs have a common structural architecture comprising of seven-transmembrane (TM) alpha-helices interconnected by three extracellular and three intracellular loops. A general feature of GPCR signaling is agonist-induced conformational changes in the receptors, leading to activation of the heterotrimeric G proteins, which consist of the guanine nucleotide-binding G-alpha subunit and the dimeric G-beta-gamma subunits. The activated G proteins then bind to and activate numerous downstream effector proteins, which generate second messengers that mediate a broad range of cellular and physiological processes.

leukotriene B4 receptors, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; Leukotriene B4 (LTB4), a metabolite of arachidonic acid, is a powerful chemotactic activator for granulocytes and macrophages. Two receptors for LTB4 have been identified: a high-affinity receptor (LTB4R1 or BLT1) and a low-affinity receptor (TB4R2 or BLT2). Both BLT1 and BLT2 receptors belong to the rhodopsin-like G-protein coupled receptor superfamily and primarily couple to G(i) proteins, which lead to chemotaxis, calcium mobilization, and inhibition of adenylate cyclase. In some cells, they can also couple to the G(q)-like protein, G16, and activate phospholipase C. LTB4 is involved in mediating inflammatory processes, immune responses, and host defense against infection. Studies have shown that LTB4 stimulates leukocyte extravasation, neutrophil degranulation, lysozyme release, and reactive oxygen species generation.

G protein-coupled receptor 1 for chemerin, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; G-protein coupled receptor 1 (GPR1) belongs to the class A of the seven transmembrane domain receptors. This is an orphan receptor that can be activated by the leukocyte chemoattractant chemerin, thereby suggesting that some of the anti-inflammatory actions of chemerin may be mediated through GPR1. GPR1 is most closely related to another chemerin receptor CMKLR1. In an in-vitro study, GPR1 has been shown to act as a co-receptor to allow replication of HIV viruses.

somatostatin receptor type 1, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; G protein-coupled somatostatin receptors (SSTRs) are composed of five distinct subtypes (SSTR1-5) that display strong sequence similarity with opioid receptors. All five receptor subtypes bind the natural somatostatin (somatotropin release inhibiting factor), a polypeptide hormone that regulates a wide variety of physiological functions such as neurotransmission, cell proliferation, contractility of smooth muscle cells, and endocrine signaling as well as inhibition of the release of many secondary hormones. SSTR1 is coupled to a Na/H exchanger, voltage-dependent calcium channels, and AMPA/kainate glutamate channels. SSTR1 is expressed in the normal human pituitary and in nearly half of all pituitary adenoma subtypes. Pssm-ID: 320636 [Multi-domain] Cd Length: 276 Bit Score: 38.74 E-value: 3.46e-03

cholecystokinin receptors, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; Cholecystokinin receptors (CCK-AR and CCK-BR) are a group of G-protein coupled receptors which bind the peptide hormones cholecystokinin (CCK) or gastrin. CCK, which facilitates digestion in the small intestine, and gastrin, a major regulator of gastric acid secretion, are highly similar peptides. Like gastrin, CCK is a naturally-occurring linear peptide that is synthesized as a preprohormone, then proteolytically cleaved to form a family of peptides with the common C-terminal sequence (Gly-Trp-Met-Asp-Phe-NH2), which is required for full biological activity. CCK-AR (type A, alimentary; also known as CCK1R) is found abundantly on pancreatic acinar cells and binds only sulfated CCK-peptides with very high affinity, whereas CCK-BR (type B, brain; also known as CCK2R), the predominant form in the brain and stomach, binds CCK or gastrin and discriminates poorly between sulfated and non-sulfated peptides. CCK is implicated in regulation of digestion, appetite control, and body weight, and is involved in neurogenesis via CCK-AR. There is some evidence to support that CCK and gastrin, via their receptors, are involved in promoting cancer development and progression, acting as growth and invasion factors.

growth hormone secretagogue receptor, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; Growth hormone secretagogue receptor, GHSR, is also known as GH-releasing peptide receptor (GHRP) or Ghrelin receptor. Ghrelin, the endogenous ligand for GHSR, is an acylated 28-amino acid peptide hormone produced by ghrelin cells in the gastrointestinal tract. Ghrelin, also called hunger hormone, is involved in the regulation of growth hormone release, appetite and feeding, gut motility, lipid and glucose metabolism, and energy balance. It also plays a role in the cardiovascular, immune, and reproductive systems. GHSR couples to G-alpha-11 proteins. Both ghrelin and GHSR are expressed in a wide range of cancer tissues. Recent studies suggested that ghrelin may play a role in processes associated with cancer progression, including cell proliferation, metastasis, apoptosis, and angiogenesis.

hydroxycarboxylic acid receptors, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; Hydroxycarboxylic acid receptor (HCAR) subfamily, a member of the class A G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), contains three receptor subtypes: HCAR1, HCAR2, and HCAR3. The endogenous ligand of HCAR1 (also known as lactate receptor 1, GPR104, or GPR81) is L-lactic acid. The endogenous ligands of HCAR2 (also known as niacin receptor 1, GPR109A, or nicotinic acid receptor) and HCAR3 (also known as niacin receptor 2 or GPR109B) are 3-hydroxybutyric acid and 3-hydroxyoctanoic acid, respectively. Because nicotinic acid is capable of stimulating HCAR2 at higher concentrations only (in the range of sub-micromolar concentration), it is unlikely that nicotinic acts as a physiological ligand of HCAR2. All three receptors are expressed in adipocytes and mediate anti-lipolytic effects in fat cells through G(i) type G protein-dependent inhibition of adenylate cyclase.

Two major bradykinin receptor subtypes, B1 and B2, have been identified based on their pharmacological properties. The B1 receptor is rapidly induced by tissue injury and inflammation, whereas the B2 receptor is ubiquitously expressed on many tissue types. Both receptors contain three consensus sites for N-linked glycosylation in extracellular domains and couple to G(q) protein to activate phospholipase C, leading to phosphoinositide hydrolysis and intracellular calcium mobilization.

neurokinin 1 receptor, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; The neurokinin 1 receptor (NK1R), also known as tachykinin receptor 1 (TACR1) or substance P receptor (SPR), is a G-protein coupled receptor found in the mammalian central nervous and peripheral nervous systems. The tachykinins act as excitatory transmitters on neurons and cells in the gastrointestinal tract. The TKs are characterized by a common five-amino acid C-terminal sequence, Phe-X-Gly-Leu-Met-NH2, where X is a hydrophobic residue. The three major mammalian tachykinins are substance P (SP), neurokinin A (NKA), and neurokinin B (NKB). The physiological actions of tachykinins are mediated through three types of receptors: neurokinin receptor type 1 (NK1R), NK2R, and NK3R. SP is a high-affinity endogenous ligand for NK1R, which interacts with the Gq protein and activates phospholipase C, leading to elevation of intracellular calcium. SP is an extremely potent vasodilator through endothelium dependent mechanism and is released from the autonomic sensory nerves. NK2R is a high-affinity receptor for NKA, the tachykinin neuropeptide substance K. SP and NKA are found in the enteric nervous system and mediate in the regulation of gastrointestinal motility, secretion, vascular permeability, and pain perception.

serotonin receptor subtype 2A, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; The 5-HT2 receptors are a subfamily of serotonin receptors that bind the neurotransmitter serotonin (5HT; 5-hydroxytryptamine) in the central nervous system (CNS). The 5-HT2 subfamily is composed of three subtypes that mediate excitatory neurotransmission: 5-HT2A, 5-HT2B, and 5-HT2C. They are selectively linked to G proteins of the G(q/11) family and activate phospholipase C, which leads to activation of protein kinase C and calcium release. In the CNS, serotonin is involved in the regulation of appetite, mood, sleep, cognition, learning and memory, as well as implicated in diseases such as migraine, schizophrenia, and depression. Indeed, 5-HT2 receptors are attractive targets for a variety of psychoactive drugs, ranging from atypical antipsychotic drugs, antidepressants, and anxiolytics, which have an antagonistic action on 5-HT2 receptors, to hallucinogens, which act as agonists at postsynaptic 5-HT2 receptors. All GPCRs have a common structural architecture comprising of seven-transmembrane (TM) alpha-helices interconnected by three extracellular and three intracellular loops. A general feature of GPCR signaling is agonist-induced conformational changes in the receptors, leading to activation of the heterotrimeric G proteins, which consist of the guanine nucleotide-binding G-alpha subunit and the dimeric G-beta-gamma subunits.

neuropeptide Y receptor type 4, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; NPY is a 36-amino acid peptide neurotransmitter with a C-terminal tyrosine amide residue that is widely distributed in the brain and the autonomic nervous system of many mammalian species. NPY exerts its functions through five, G-protein coupled receptor subtypes including NPY1R, NPY2R, NPY4R, NPY5R, and NPY6R; however, NPY6R is not functional in humans. NYP receptors are also activated by its two other family members, peptide YY (PYY) and pancreatic polypeptide (PP). They typically couple to G(i) or G(o) proteins, which leads to a decrease in adenylate cyclase activity, thereby decreasing intracellular cAMP levels, and are involved in diverse physiological roles including appetite regulation, circadian rhythm, and anxiety.

XC chemokine receptor 1, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; XCR1 is a chemokine receptor specific for XCL1 and XCL2 (previously called lymphotactin alpha/beta), which differ in only two amino acids. XCL1/2 is the only member of the C chemokine subfamily, which is unique as containing only two of the four cysteines that are found in other chemokine families. Human XCL1/2 has been shown to be secreted by activated CD8+ T cells and upon activation of the innate immune system. Chemokines are principal regulators for leukocyte trafficking, recruitment, and activation. Chemokine family membership is defined on the basis of sequence homology and on the presence of variations on a conserved cysteine motif, which allows the family to further divide into four subfamilies (CC, CXC, XC, and CX3C). Chemokines interact with seven-transmembrane receptors which are typically coupled to G protein for signaling. Pssm-ID: 341337 [Multi-domain] Cd Length: 271 Bit Score: 37.34 E-value: 9.61e-03

purinergic receptor P2Y8, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; P2Y8 (or P2RY8) expression is often increased in leukemia patients, and it plays a role in the pathogenesis of acute leukemia. P2Y8 is phylogenetically closely related to the protease-activated receptors (PARs), which are activated by serine proteases such as thrombin, trypsin, and tryptase. These proteases cleave the extracellular domain of the receptor to form a new N-terminus, which in turn functions as a tethered ligand. The newly-formed tethered ligand binds intramolecularly to activate the receptor and triggers G-protein binding and intracellular signaling. Four different types of the protease-activated receptors have been identified (PAR1-4) and are predominantly expressed in platelets. PAR1, PA3, and PAR4 are activated by thrombin, whereas PAR2 is activated by trypsin. The PARs are known to couple with several G-proteins including Gi (cAMP inhibitory), G12/13 (Rho and Ras activation), and Gq (calcium signaling) to activate downstream signaling messengers which induces numerous cellular and physiological effects.
