167-420 2.32e-175

metabotropic glutamate receptor 3 in group 2, member of the class C family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; The metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) in group 2 include mGluR 2 and 3. They are homodimeric class C G-protein coupled receptors which are activated by glutamate, the major excitatory neurotransmitter of the CNS. mGluRs are involved in regulating neuronal excitability and synaptic transmission via intracellular activation of second messenger signaling pathways. While the ionotropic glutamate receptor subtypes (AMPA, NMDA, and kainite) mediate fast excitatory postsynaptic transmission, mGluRs are known to mediate slower excitatory postsynaptic responses and to be involved in synaptic plasticity in the mammalian brain. In addition to seven-transmembrane helices, the class C GPCRs are characterized by a large N-terminal extracellular Venus flytrap-like domain, which is composed of two adjacent lobes separated by a cleft which binds an endogenous ligand. Moreover, they exist as either homo- or heterodimers, which are essential for their function. For instance, mGluRs form homodimers via interactions between the N-terminal Venus flytrap domains and the intermolecular disulphide bonds between cysteine residues located in the cysteine-rich domain (CRD). At least eight different subtypes of metabotropic receptors (mGluR1-8) have been identified and further classified into three groups based on their sequence homology, pharmacological properties, and signaling pathways. Group 1 (mGluR1 and mGluR5) receptors are predominantly located postsynaptically on neurons and are involved in long-term synaptic plasticity in the brain, including long-term potentiation (LTP) in the hippocampus and long-term depression (LTD) in the cerebellum. They are coupled to G(q/11) proteins, thereby activating phospholipase C to generate inositol-1,4,5-triphosphate (IP3) and diacyglycerol (DAG), which in turn lead to Ca2+ release and protein kinase C activation, respectively. Group 1 mGluR expression is shown to be strongly upregulated in animal models of epilepsy, brain injury, inflammatory, and neuropathic pain, as well as in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or multiple sclerosis. Group 2 (mGluR2 and mGluR3) and 3 (mGluR4, mGluR6, mGluR7, and mGluR8) receptors are predominantly localized presynaptically in the active region of neurotransmitter release. They are coupled to G(i/o) proteins, which leads to inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity and cAMP formation, and consequently to a decrease in protein kinase A (PKA) activity. Ultimately, activation of these receptors leads to inhibition of neurotransmitter release such as glutamate and GABA via inhibition of Ca2+ channels and activation of K+ channels. Furthermore, while activation of Group 1 mGluRs increases NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptor activity and risk of neurotoxicity, Group 2 and 3 mGluRs decrease NMDA receptor activity and prevent neurotoxicity.

Type 1 periplasmic binding fold superfamily; Type 1 periplasmic binding fold superfamily. This model and hierarchy represent the ligand binding domains of the LacI family of transcriptional regulators, periplasmic binding proteins of the ABC-type transport systems, the family C G-protein couples receptors (GPCRs), membrane bound guanylyl cyclases including the family of natriuretic peptide receptors (NPRs), and the N-terminal leucine-isoleucine-valine binding protein (LIVBP)-like domains of the ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs). In LacI-like transcriptional regulator and the bacterial periplasmic binding proteins, the ligands are monosaccharides, including lactose, ribose, fructose, xylose, arabinose, galactose/glucose and other sugars, with a few exceptions. Periplasmic sugar binding proteins are one of the components of ABC transporters and are involved in the active transport of water-soluble ligands. The LacI family of proteins consists of transcriptional regulators related to the lac repressor. In this case, the sugar binding domain binds a sugar which changes the DNA binding activity of the repressor domain. The periplasmic binding proteins are the primary receptors for chemotaxis and transport of many sugar based solutes. The core structures of periplasmic binding proteins are classified into two types, and they differ in number and order of beta strands: type 1 has six beta strands while type 2 has five beta strands per sub-domain. These two structural folds are thought to be distantly related via a common ancestor. Notably, while the N-terminal LIVBP-like domain of iGluRs belongs to the type 1 periplasmic-binding fold protein superfamily, the glutamate-binding domain of the iGluR is structurally similar to the type 2 periplasmic-binding fold.

7 transmembrane sweet-taste receptor of 3 GCPR; This is a domain of seven transmembrane regions that forms the C-terminus of some subclass 3 G-coupled-protein receptors. It is often associated with a downstream cysteine-rich linker domain, NCD3G pfam07562, which is the human sweet-taste receptor, and the N-terminal domain, ANF_receptor pfam01094. The seven TM regions assemble in such a way as to produce a docking pocket into which such molecules as cyclamate and lactisole have been found to bind and consequently confer the taste of sweetness.

metabotropic glutamate receptors in group 2, member of the class C family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; The metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) in group 2 include mGluR 2 and 3. They are homodimeric class C G-protein coupled receptors which are activated by glutamate, the major excitatory neurotransmitter of the CNS. mGluRs are involved in regulating neuronal excitability and synaptic transmission via intracellular activation of second messenger signaling pathways. While the ionotropic glutamate receptor subtypes (AMPA, NMDA, and kainite) mediate fast excitatory postsynaptic transmission, mGluRs are known to mediate slower excitatory postsynaptic responses and to be involved in synaptic plasticity in the mammalian brain. In addition to seven-transmembrane helices, the class C GPCRs are characterized by a large N-terminal extracellular Venus flytrap-like domain, which is composed of two adjacent lobes separated by a cleft which binds an endogenous ligand. Moreover, they exist as either homo- or heterodimers, which are essential for their function. For instance, mGluRs form homodimers via interactions between the N-terminal Venus flytrap domains and the intermolecular disulphide bonds between cysteine residues located in the cysteine-rich domain (CRD). At least eight different subtypes of metabotropic receptors (mGluR1-8) have been identified and further classified into three groups based on their sequence homology, pharmacological properties, and signaling pathways. Group 1 (mGluR1 and mGluR5) receptors are predominantly located postsynaptically on neurons and are involved in long-term synaptic plasticity in the brain, including long-term potentiation (LTP) in the hippocampus and long-term depression (LTD) in the cerebellum. They are coupled to G(q/11) proteins, thereby activating phospholipase C to generate inositol-1,4,5-triphosphate (IP3) and diacyglycerol (DAG), which in turn lead to Ca2+ release and protein kinase C activation, respectively. Group 1 mGluR expression is shown to be strongly upregulated in animal models of epilepsy, brain injury, inflammatory, and neuropathic pain, as well as in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or multiple sclerosis. Group 2 (mGluR2 and mGluR3) and 3 (mGluR4, mGluR6, mGluR7, and mGluR8) receptors are predominantly localized presynaptically in the active region of neurotransmitter release. They are coupled to G(i/o) proteins, which leads to inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity and cAMP formation, and consequently to a decrease in protein kinase A (PKA) activity. Ultimately, activation of these receptors leads to inhibition of neurotransmitter release such as glutamate and GABA via inhibition of Ca2+ channels and activation of K+ channels. Furthermore, while activation of Group 1 mGluRs increases NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptor activity and risk of neurotoxicity, Group 2 and 3 mGluRs decrease NMDA receptor activity and prevent neurotoxicity.

167-427 4.91e-95

metabotropic glutamate receptors in group 3, member of the class C family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; The metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) in group 3 include mGluRs 4, 6, 7, and 8. They are homodimeric class C G-protein coupled receptors which are activated by glutamate, the major excitatory neurotransmitter of the CNS. mGluRs are involved in regulating neuronal excitability and synaptic transmission via intracellular activation of second messenger signaling pathways. While the ionotropic glutamate receptor subtypes (AMPA, NMDA, and kainite) mediate fast excitatory postsynaptic transmission, mGluRs are known to mediate slower excitatory postsynaptic responses and to be involved in synaptic plasticity in the mammalian brain. In addition to seven-transmembrane helices, the class C GPCRs are characterized by a large N-terminal extracellular Venus flytrap-like domain, which is composed of two adjacent lobes separated by a cleft which binds an endogenous ligand. Moreover, they exist as either homo- or heterodimers, which are essential for their function. For instance, mGluRs form homodimers via interactions between the N-terminal Venus flytrap domains and the intermolecular disulphide bonds between cysteine residues located in the cysteine-rich domain (CRD). At least eight different subtypes of metabotropic receptors (mGluR1-8) have been identified and further classified into three groups based on their sequence homology, pharmacological properties, and signaling pathways. Group 1 (mGluR1 and mGluR5) receptors are predominantly located postsynaptically on neurons and are involved in long-term synaptic plasticity in the brain, including long-term potentiation (LTP) in the hippocampus and long-term depression (LTD) in the cerebellum. They are coupled to G(q/11) proteins, thereby activating phospholipase C to generate inositol-1,4,5-triphosphate (IP3) and diacyglycerol (DAG), which in turn lead to Ca2+ release and protein kinase C activation, respectively. Group 1 mGluR expression is shown to be strongly upregulated in animal models of epilepsy, brain injury, inflammatory, and neuropathic pain, as well as in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or multiple sclerosis. Group 2 (mGluR2 and mGluR3) and 3 (mGluR4, mGluR6, mGluR7, and mGluR8) receptors are predominantly localized presynaptically in the active region of neurotransmitter release. They are coupled to G(i/o) proteins, which leads to inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity and cAMP formation, and consequently to a decrease in protein kinase A (PKA) activity. Ultimately, activation of these receptors leads to inhibition of neurotransmitter release such as glutamate and GABA via inhibition of Ca2+ channels and activation of K+ channels. Furthermore, while activation of Group 1 mGluRs increases NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptor activity and risk of neurotoxicity, Group 2 and 3 mGluRs decrease NMDA receptor activity and prevent neurotoxicity.

167-420 3.21e-85

metabotropic glutamate receptor-like class C family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors superfamily; The class C GPCRs consist of glutamate receptors (mGluR1-8), the extracellular calcium-sensing receptors (caSR), the gamma-amino-butyric acid type B receptors (GABA-B), the vomeronasal type-2 pheromone receptors (V2R), the type 1 taste receptors (TAS1R), and the promiscuous L-alpha-amino acid receptor (GPRC6A), as well as several orphan receptors. Structurally, these receptors are typically composed of a large extracellular domain containing a Venus flytrap module which possesses the orthosteric agonist-binding site, a cysteine-rich domain (CRD) with the exception of GABA-B receptors, and the seven-transmembrane domains responsible for G protein activation. Moreover, the Venus flytrap module shows high structural homology with bacterial periplasmic amino acid-binding proteins, which serve as primary receptors in transport of a variety of soluble substrates such as amino acids and polysaccharides, among many others. The class C GPCRs exist as either homo- or heterodimers, which are essential for their function. The GABA-B1 and GABA-B2 receptors form a heterodimer via interactions between the N-terminal Venus flytrap modules and the C-terminal coiled-coiled domains. On the other hand, heterodimeric CaSRs and Tas1Rs and homodimeric mGluRs utilize Venus flytrap interactions and intermolecular disulphide bonds between cysteine residues located in the cysteine-rich domain (CRD), which can also acts as a molecular link to mediate the signal between the Venus flytrap and the 7TMs. Furthermore, members of the class C GPCRs bind a variety of endogenous ligands, ranging from amino acids, ions, to pheromones and sugar molecules, and play important roles in many physiological processes such as synaptic transmission, calcium homeostasis, and the sensation of sweet and umami tastes.

metabotropic glutamate receptor 8 in group 3, member of the class C family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; The receptors in group 3 include mGluRs 4, 6, 7, and 8. They are homodimeric class C G-protein coupled receptors which are activated by glutamate, the major excitatory neurotransmitter of the CNS. mGluRs are involved in regulating neuronal excitability and synaptic transmission via intracellular activation of second messenger signaling pathways. While the ionotropic glutamate receptor subtypes (AMPA, NMDA, and kainite) mediate fast excitatory postsynaptic transmission, mGluRs are known to mediate slower excitatory postsynaptic responses and to be involved in synaptic plasticity in the mammalian brain. In addition to seven-transmembrane helices, the class C GPCRs are characterized by a large N-terminal extracellular Venus flytrap-like domain, which is composed of two adjacent lobes separated by a cleft which binds an endogenous ligand. Moreover, they exist as either homo- or heterodimers, which are essential for their function.

At least eight different subtypes of metabotropic receptors (mGluR1-8) have been identified and further classified into three groups based on their sequence homology, pharmacological properties, and signaling pathways. Group 1 (mGluR1 and mGluR5) receptors are predominantly located postsynaptically on neurons and are involved in long-term synaptic plasticity in the brain, including long-term potentiation (LTP) in the hippocampus and long-term depression (LTD) in the cerebellum. They are coupled to G(q/11) proteins, thereby activating phospholipase C to generate inositol-1,4,5-triphosphate (IP3) and diacyglycerol (DAG), which in turn lead to Ca2+ release and protein kinase C activation, respectively. Group 1 mGluR expression is shown to be strongly upregulated in animal models of epilepsy, brain injury, inflammatory, and neuropathic pain, as well as in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or multiple sclerosis. Group 2 (mGluR2 and mGluR3) and 3 (mGluR4, mGluR6, mGluR7, and mGluR8) receptors are predominantly localized presynaptically in the active region of neurotransmitter release. They are coupled to G(i/o) proteins, which leads to inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity and cAMP formation, and consequently to a decrease in protein kinase A (PKA) activity. Ultimately, activation of these receptors leads to inhibition of neurotransmitter release such as glutamate and GABA via inhibition of Ca2+ channels and activation of K+ channels. Furthermore, while activation of Group 1 mGluRs increases NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptor activity and risk of neurotoxicity, Group 2 and 3 mGluRs decrease NMDA receptor activity and prevent neurotoxicity.

168-426 1.05e-79

metabotropic glutamate receptor 7 in group 3, member of the class C family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; The receptors in group 3 include mGluRs 4, 6, 7, and 8. They are homodimeric class C G-protein coupled receptors which are activated by glutamate, the major excitatory neurotransmitter of the CNS. mGluRs are involved in regulating neuronal excitability and synaptic transmission via intracellular activation of second messenger signaling pathways. While the ionotropic glutamate receptor subtypes (AMPA, NMDA, and kainite) mediate fast excitatory postsynaptic transmission, mGluRs are known to mediate slower excitatory postsynaptic responses and to be involved in synaptic plasticity in the mammalian brain. In addition to seven-transmembrane helices, the class C GPCRs are characterized by a large N-terminal extracellular Venus flytrap-like domain, which is composed of two adjacent lobes separated by a cleft which binds an endogenous ligand. Moreover, they exist as either homo- or heterodimers, which are essential for their function. For instance, mGluRs form homodimers via interactions between the N-terminal Venus flytrap domains and the intermolecular disulphide bonds between cysteine residues located in the cysteine-rich domain (CRD). At least eight different subtypes of metabotropic receptors (mGluR1-8) have been identified and further classified into three groups based on their sequence homology, pharmacological properties, and signaling pathways. Group 1 (mGluR1 and mGluR5) receptors are predominantly located postsynaptically on neurons and are involved in long-term synaptic plasticity in the brain, including long-term potentiation (LTP) in the hippocampus and long-term depression (LTD) in the cerebellum.

162-414 3.72e-72

7 transmembrane sweet-taste receptor of 3 GCPR; This is a domain of seven transmembrane regions that forms the C-terminus of some subclass 3 G-coupled-protein receptors. It is often associated with a downstream cysteine-rich linker domain, NCD3G pfam07562, which is the human sweet-taste receptor, and the N-terminal domain, ANF_receptor pfam01094. The seven TM regions assemble in such a way as to produce a docking pocket into which such molecules as cyclamate and lactisole have been found to bind and consequently confer the taste of sweetness.

170-420 1.69e-49

vomeronasal type-2 pheromone receptors, member of the class C family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; This group represents vomeronasal type-2 pheromone receptors (V2Rs). Members of the V2R family of vomeronasal GPCRs are involved in detecting protein pheromones for social and sexual cues between the same species. V2Rs and G-alpha(o) protein are coexpressed in the basal layer of the vomeronasal organ (VNO), which is the sensory organ of the accessory olfactory system present in amphibians, reptiles, and non-primate mammals such as mice and rodents, but it is non-functional or absent in humans, apes, and monkeys. On the other hand, members of the V1R receptor family and G-alpha(i2) protein are coexpressed in the apical neurons of the VNO. Activation of V1R or V2R causes activation of phospholipase pathway, producing the second messengers diacylglycerol (DAG) and IP3. However, in contrast to V1Rs, V2Rs contain the long N-terminal extracellular domain, which is believed to bind pheromones.

167-420 4.12e-45

vomeronasal type-2 pheromone receptors, amino acid-sensing receptors and closely related proteins; member of the class C family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; This group is composed of vomeronasal type-2 pheromone receptors (V2Rs), a subgroup of broad-spectrum amino-acid sensing receptors including calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) and GPRC6A, as well as their closely related proteins. Members of the V2R family of vomeronasal GPCRs are involved in detecting protein pheromones for social and sexual cues between the same species. V2Rs and G-alpha(o) protein are co-expressed in the basal layer of the vomeronasal organ (VNO), which is the sensory organ of the accessory olfactory system present in amphibians, reptiles, and non-primate mammals such as mice and rodents, but it is non-functional or absent in humans, apes, and monkeys. On the other hand, members of the V1R receptor family and G-alpha(i2) protein are co-expressed in the apical neurons of the VNO. Activation of V1R or V2R causes activation of phospholipase pathway, producing the second messengers diacylglycerol (DAG) and IP3. However, in contrast to V1Rs, V2Rs contain the long N-terminal extracellular domain, which is believed to bind pheromones. CaSR is a widely expressed GPCR that is involved in sensing small changes in extracellular levels of calcium ion to maintain a constant level of the extracellular calcium via modulating the synthesis and secretion of calcium regulating hormones, such as parathyroid hormone (PTH), in order to regulate Ca(2+)transport into or out of the extracellular fluid via kidney, intestine, and/or bone. For instance, when Ca2+ is high, CaSR downregulates PTH synthesis and secretion, leading to an increase in renal Ca2+ excretion, a decrease in intestinal Ca2+ absorption, and a reduction in release of skeletal Ca2+. GRPC6A (GPCR, class C, group 6, subtype A) is a widely expressed amino acid-sensing GPCR that is most closely related to CaSR. GPRC6A is most potently activated by the basic amino acids L-arginine, L-lysine, and L-ornithine and less potently by small aliphatic amino acids. Moreover, the receptor can be either activated or modulated by divalent cations such as Ca2+. GPRC6A is expressed in the testis, but not the ovary and specifically also binds to the osteoblast-derived hormone osteocalcin (OCN), which regulates testosterone production by the testis and male fertility independently of the hypothalamic-pituitary axis. Furthermore, GPRC6A knockout studies suggest that GRPC6A is involved in regulation of bone metabolism, male reproduction, energy homeostasis, glucose metabolism, and in activation of inflammation response, as well as prostate cancer growth and progression, among others.

168-420 1.37e-40

calcium-sensing receptor, member of the class C of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; CaSR is a widely expressed GPCR that is involved in sensing small changes in extracellular levels of calcium ion to maintain a constant level of the extracellular calcium via modulating the synthesis and secretion of calcium regulating hormones, such as parathyroid hormone (PTH), in order to regulate Ca(2+)transport into or out of the extracellular fluid via kidney, intestine, and/or bone. For instance, when Ca2+ is high, CaSR downregulates PTH synthesis and secretion, leading to an increase in renal Ca2+ excretion, a decrease in intestinal Ca2+ absorption, and a reduction in release of skeletal Ca2+. CaSR is coupled to both G(q/11)-dependent activation of phospholipase and, subsequently, intracellular calcium mobilization and protein kinase C activation as well as G(i/o)-dependent inhibition of adenylate cyclase leading to inhibition of cAMP formation. CaSR is closely related to GRPC6A (GPCR, class C, group 6, subtype A), which is an amino acid-sensing GPCR that is most potently activated by the basic amino acids L-arginine, L-lysine, and L-ornithine. These receptors contain a large extracellular Venus flytrap-like domain in the N-terminus, cysteine-rich domain (CRD), and seven-transmembrane (7TM) domain, which are characteristics of the class C GPCRs. The Venus flytrap-like domain shares strong sequence homology to bacterial periplasmic binding proteins and possess the orthosteric amino acid and calcium binding sites for members of the class C, including CaSR, GABA-B1, GPRC6A, mGlu, and TASR1 receptors.

170-418 1.02e-29

gamma-aminobutyric acid type B receptor and related proteins, member of the class C family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; The type B receptor for gamma-aminobutyric acid, GABA-B, is activated by its endogenous ligand GABA, the principal inhibitory neurotransmitter. The functional GABA-B receptor is an obligatory heterodimer composed of two related subunits, GABA-B1, which is primarily involved in GABA ligand binding, and GABA-B2, which is responsible for both G-protein coupling and trafficking of the heterodimer to the plasma membrane. Activation of GABA-B couples to G(i/o)-type G proteins, which in turn modulate three major downstream effectors: adenylate cyclase, voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channels, and inwardly-rectifying K+ channels. Consequently, GABA-B receptor produces slow and sustained inhibitory responses by decreased neurotransmitter release via inhibition of Ca2+ channels and by postsynaptic hyperpolarization via the activation of K+ channels through the G-protein beta-gamma dimer. The GABA-B is expressed in both pre- and postsynaptic sites of glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons in the brain where it regulates synaptic activity. Thus, the GABA-B receptor agonist, baclofen, is used to treat muscle tightness and cramping caused by spasticity in multiple sclerosis patients. Moreover, GABA-B antagonists improves cognitive performance in mammals, while GABA-B agonists suppress cognitive behavior. In most of the class C family members, the extracellular Venus-flytrap domain in the N-terminus is connected to the seven-transmembrane (7TM) via a cysteine-rich domain (CRD). However, in the GABA-B receptor, the CRD is absent in both subunits and the Venus-flytrap ligand-binding domain is directly connected to the 7TM via a 10-15 amino acids linker, suggesting that GABA-B receptor may utilize a different activation mechanism. Also included in this group are orphan receptors, GPR156 and GPR158, which are closely related to the GABA-B receptor family.

type 1 taste receptor subtype 1, member of the class C of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; This group represents TAS1R1, which is a member of the type I taste receptor (TAS1R) family that belongs to the class C of G protein-coupled receptors. The functional TAS1Rs are obligatory heterodimers built from three known members, TAS1R1-3. TAS1R1 combines with TAS1R3 to form an umami taste receptor, which is responsible for the perception of savory taste, such as the food additive mono-sodium glutamate (MSG); whereas the combination of TAS1R2-TAS1R3 forms a sweet-taste receptor for sugars and D-amino acids. On the other hand, the type II taste receptors (TAS2Rs), which belong to the class A family of GPCRs, recognize bitter tasting compounds. In the case of sweet, for example, the TAS1R2-TAS1R3 heterodimer activates phospholipase C (PLC) via alpha-gustducin, a heterodimeric G protein that is involved in perception of sweet and bitter tastes. This activation leads to generation of inositol (1, 4, 5)-trisphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG), and consequently increases intracellular Ca2+ mobilization and activates a cation channel, TRPM5. In contrast to the TAS1R2-TAS1R3 heterodimer, TAS1R3 alone could activate adenylate cyclase leading to cAMP formation in the absence of alpha-gustducin. Each TAS1R contains a large extracellular Venus flytrap-like domain in the N-terminus, cysteine-rich domain (CRD) and seven-transmembrane (7TM) domain, which are characteristics of the class C GPCRs. The Venus flytrap-like domain shares strong sequence homology to bacterial periplasmic binding proteins and possess the orthosteric amino acid and calcium binding sites for members of the class C, including CaSR, GABA-B1, GPRC6A, mGlu, and TAS1R receptors.

172-419 2.27e-17

orphan GPR158 and similar proteins, member of the class C family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; This group includes orphan receptors GPR158, GPR158-like (also called GPR179) and similar proteins. These orphan receptors are closely related to the type B receptor for gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA-B), which is activated by its endogenous ligand GABA, the principal inhibitory neurotransmitter. The functional GABA-B receptor is an obligatory heterodimer composed of two related subunits, GABA-B1, which is primarily involved in GABA ligand binding, and GABA-B2, which is responsible for both G-protein coupling and trafficking of the heterodimer to the plasma membrane. Activation of GABA-B couples to G(i/o)-type G proteins, which in turn modulate three major downstream effectors: adenylate cyclase, voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channels, and inwardly-rectifying K+ channels. Consequently, GABA-B receptor produces slow and sustained inhibitory responses by decreased neurotransmitter release via inhibition of Ca2+ channels and by postsynaptic hyperpolarization via the activation of K+ channels through the G-protein beta-gamma dimer. The GABA-B is expressed in both pre- and postsynaptic sites of glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons in the brain where it regulates synaptic activity. Thus, the GABA-B receptor agonist, baclofen, is used to treat muscle tightness and cramping caused by spasticity in multiple sclerosis patients. Moreover, GABA-B antagonists improves cognitive performance in mammals, while GABA-B agonists suppress cognitive behavior. In most of the class C family members, the extracellular Venus-flytrap domain in the N-terminus is connected to the seven-transmembrane (7TM) via a cysteine-rich domain (CRD). However, in the GABA-B receptor, the CRD is absent in both subunits and the Venus-flytrap ligand-binding domain is directly connected to the 7TM via a 10-15 amino acids linker, suggesting that GABA-B receptor may utilize a different activation mechanism.

176-420 1.23e-14

type 1 taste receptor subtype 2a and similar proteins, member of the class C of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; This group includes TAS1R2a and its similar proteins found in fish. They are members of the type I taste receptor (TAS1R) family that belongs to the class C of G protein-coupled receptors. The functional TAS1Rs are obligatory heterodimers built from three known members, TAS1R1-3. TAS1R1 combines with TAS1R3 to form an umami taste receptor, which is responsible for the perception of savory taste, such as the food additive mono-sodium glutamate (MSG); whereas the combination of TAS1R2-TAS1R3 forms a sweet-taste receptor for sugars and D-amino acids. On the other hand, the type II taste receptors (TAS2Rs), which belong to the class A family of GPCRs, recognize bitter tasting compounds. In the case of sweet, for example, the TAS1R2-TAS1R3 heterodimer activates phospholipase C (PLC) via alpha-gustducin, a heterodimeric G protein that is involved in perception of sweet and bitter tastes. This activation leads to generation of inositol (1, 4, 5)-trisphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG), and consequently increases intracellular Ca2+ mobilization and activates a cation channel, TRPM5. In contrast to the TAS1R2-TAS1R3 heterodimer, TAS1R3 alone could activate adenylate cyclase leading to cAMP formation in the absence of alpha-gustducin. Each TAS1R contains a large extracellular Venus flytrap-like domain in the N-terminus, cysteine-rich domain (CRD) and seven-transmembrane (7TM) domain, which are characteristics of the class C GPCRs. The Venus flytrap-like domain shares strong sequence homology to bacterial periplasmic binding proteins and possess the orthosteric amino acid and calcium binding sites for members of the class C, including CaSR, GABA-B1, GPRC6A, mGlu, and TAS1R receptors.

174-418 1.25e-11

gamma-aminobutyric acid type B receptor subunit 1, member of the class C family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; The type B receptor for gamma-aminobutyric acid, GABA-B, is activated by its endogenous ligand GABA, the principal inhibitory neurotransmitter. The functional GABA-B receptor is an obligatory heterodimer composed of two related subunits, GABA-B1, which is primarily involved in GABA ligand binding, and GABA-B2, which is responsible for both G-protein coupling and trafficking of the heterodimer to the plasma membrane. Activation of GABA-B couples to G(i/o)-type G proteins, which in turn modulate three major downstream effectors: adenylate cyclase, voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channels, and inwardly-rectifying K+ channels. Consequently, GABA-B receptor produces slow and sustained inhibitory responses by decreased neurotransmitter release via inhibition of Ca2+ channels and by postsynaptic hyperpolarization via the activation of K+ channels through the G-protein beta-gamma dimer. The GABA-B is expressed in both pre- and postsynaptic sites of glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons in the brain where it regulates synaptic activity. Thus, the GABA-B receptor agonist, baclofen, is used to treat muscle tightness and cramping caused by spasticity in multiple sclerosis patients. Moreover, GABA-B antagonists improves cognitive performance in mammals, while GABA-B agonists suppress cognitive behavior. In most of the class C family members, the extracellular Venus-flytrap domain in the N-terminus is connected to the seven-transmembrane (7TM) via a cysteine-rich domain (CRD). However, in the GABA-B receptor, the CRD is absent in both subunits and the Venus-flytrap ligand-binding domain is directly connected to the 7TM via a 10-15 amino acids linker, suggesting that GABA-B receptor may utilize a different activation mechanism.

167-419 6.32e-11

retinoic acid-inducible orphan G-protein-coupled receptors; class C family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors, group 5; Retinoic acid-inducible G-protein-coupled receptors (RAIGs), also referred to as GPCR class C group 5, are a group consisting of four orphan receptors RAIG1 (GPRC5A), RAIG2 (GPRC5B), RAIG3 (GPRC5C), and RAIG4 (GPRC5D). Unlike other members of the class C GPCRs which contain a large N-terminal extracellular domain, RAIGs have a shorter N-terminus. Thus, it is unlikely that RAIGs bind an agonist at its N-terminus domain. Instead, agonists may bind to the seven-transmembrane domain of these receptors. In addition, RAIG2 and RAIG3 contain a cleavable signal peptide whereas RAIG1 and RAIG4 do not. Although their expression is induced by retinoic acid (vitamin A analog), their biological function is not clearly understood. To date, no ligand is known for the members of RAIG family. Three receptor types (RAIG1-3) are found in vertebrates, while RAIG4 is only present in mammals. They show distinct tissue distribution with RAIG1 being primarily expressed in the lung, RAIG2 in the brain and placenta, RAIG3 in the brain, kidney and liver, and RAIG4 in the skin. RAIG1 is evolutionarily conserved from mammals to fish. RAIG1 has been to shown to act as a tumor suppressor in non-small cell lung carcinoma as well as oral squamous cell carcinoma, but it could also act as an oncogene in breast cancer, colorectal cancer, and pancreatic cancer. Studies have shown that overexpression of RAIG1 decreases intracellular cAMP levels. Moreover, knocking out RAIG1 induces the activation of the NF-kB and STAT3 signaling pathways leading to cell proliferation and resistance to apoptosis. RAIG2 (GPRC5B), a mammalian Boss (Bride of sevenless) homolog, activates obesity-associated inflammatory signaling in adipocytes, and GPRC5B knockout mice show resistance to high-fat diet-induced obesity and insulin resistance. The specific functions of RAIG3 and RAIG4 are unknown; however, they may play roles in mediating the effects of retinoic acid on embryogenesis, differentiation, and tumorigenesis through interactions with G-protein signaling pathways.

ligand binding domain of metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR); Ligand binding domain of the metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR), which are members of the family C of G-protein-coupled receptors that transduce extracellular signals into G-protein activation and ultimately into cellular responses. mGluRs bind to glutamate and function as an excitatory neurotransmitter; they are involved in learning, memory, anxiety, and the perception of pain. Eight subtypes of mGluRs have been cloned so far, and are classified into three groups according to their sequence similarities, transduction mechanisms, and pharmacological profiles. Group I is composed of mGlu1R and mGlu5R that both stimulate PLC hydrolysis. Group II includes mGlu2R and mGlu3R, which inhibit adenylyl cyclase, as do mGlu4R, mGlu6R, mGlu7R, and mGlu8R, which form group III.

174-415 1.33e-07

gamma-aminobutyric acid type B receptor subunit 2, member of the class C family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; The type B receptor for gamma-aminobutyric acid, GABA-B, is activated by its endogenous ligand GABA, the principal inhibitory neurotransmitter. The functional GABA-B receptor is an obligatory heterodimer composed of two related subunits, GABA-B1, which is primarily involved in GABA ligand binding, and GABA-B2, which is responsible for both G-protein coupling and trafficking of the heterodimer to the plasma membrane. Activation of GABA-B couples to G(i/o)-type G proteins, which in turn modulate three major downstream effectors: adenylate cyclase, voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channels, and inwardly-rectifying K+ channels. Consequently, GABA-B receptor produces slow and sustained inhibitory responses by decreased neurotransmitter release via inhibition of Ca2+ channels and by postsynaptic hyperpolarization via the activation of K+ channels through the G-protein beta-gamma dimer. The GABA-B is expressed in both pre- and postsynaptic sites of glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons in the brain where it regulates synaptic activity. Thus, the GABA-B receptor agonist, baclofen, is used to treat muscle tightness and cramping caused by spasticity in multiple sclerosis patients. Moreover, GABA-B antagonists improves cognitive performance in mammals, while GABA-B agonists suppress cognitive behavior. In most of the class C family members, the extracellular Venus-flytrap domain in the N-terminus is connected to the seven-transmembrane (7TM) via a cysteine-rich domain (CRD). However, in the GABA-B receptor, the CRD is absent in both subunits and the Venus-flytrap ligand-binding domain is directly connected to the 7TM via a 10-15 amino acids linker, suggesting that GABA-B receptor may utilize a different activation mechanism.

175-414 8.99e-06

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.

167-419 6.37e-05

Bride of sevenless, member of the class C family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; Bride of Sevenless (Boss) is a putative Drosophila melanogaster G protein-coupled receptor that functions as a glucose-responding receptor to regulate energy metabolism. Boss is expressed predominantly in the fly's fat body, a nutrient-sensing tissue functionally analogous to the mammalian liver and adipose tissues, and in photoreceptor cells. Boss, which is expressed on the surface of R8 photoreceptor cell, binds and activates the Sevenless receptor tyrosine kinase on the neighboring R7 precursor cell. Activation of Sevenless results in phosphorylation of the Sevenless, triggering a signaling transduction cascade through Ras pathway that ultimately leads to the differentiation of the R7 precursor into a fully functional R7 photoreceptor, the last of eight photoreceptors to differentiate in each ommatidium of the developing Drosophila eye. In the absence of either of Sevenless or Boss, the R7 precursor fails to differentiate as a photoreceptor and instead develops into a non-neuronal cone cell. Moreover, Boss mutants in Drosophila showed elevated food intake, but reduced stored triglyceride levels, suggesting that Boss may play a role in regulating energy homeostasis in nutrient sensing tissues. Furthermore, GPRC5B, a mammalian Boss homolog, activates obesity-associated inflammatory signaling in adipocytes, and that the GPRC5B knockout mice showed resistance to high-fat diet-induced obesity and insulin resistance.

ligand-binding domain of membrane-bound glutamate receptors that mediate excitatory transmission on the cellular surface through initial binding of glutamate; categorized into ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs) and metabotropic glutamate receptors (m; Ligand-binding domain of membrane-bound glutamate receptors that mediate excitatory transmission on the cellular surface through initial binding of glutamate and are categorized into ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs) and metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs). The metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR) are key receptors in the modulation of excitatory synaptic transmission in the central nervous system. The mGluRs are coupled to G proteins and are thus distinct from the iGluRs which internally contain ligand-gated ion channels. The mGluR structure is divided into three regions: the extracellular region, the seven-spanning transmembrane region and the cytoplasmic region. The extracellular region is further divided into the ligand-binding domain (LBD) and the cysteine-rich domain. The LBD has sequence similarity to the LIVBP, which is a bacterial periplasmic protein (PBP), as well as to the extracellular region of both iGluR and the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)b receptor. iGluRs are divided into three main subtypes based on pharmacological profile: NMDA, AMPA, and kainate receptors. All family C GPCRs have a large extracellular N terminus that contain a domain with homology to bacterial periplasmic amino acid-binding proteins.

167-418 3.01e-03

retinoic acid-inducible orphan G-protein-coupled receptors 1 and 4; class C family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors, group 5, member A and D; Retinoic acid-inducible G-protein-coupled receptors (RAIGs), also referred to as GPCR class C group 5, are a group consisting of four orphan receptors RAIG1 (GPRC5A), RAIG2 (GPRC5B), RAIG3 (GPRC5C), and RAIG4 (GPRC5D). Unlike other members of the class C GPCRs which contain a large N-terminal extracellular domain, RAIGs have a shorter N-terminus. Thus, it is unlikely that RAIGs bind an agonist at its N-terminus domain. Instead, the agonists may bind to the seven-transmembrane domain of these receptors. In addition, RAIG2 and RAIG3 contain a cleavable signal peptide whereas RAIG1 and RAIG4 do not. Although their expression is induced by retinoic acid (vitamin A analog), their biological function is not clearly understood. To date, no ligand is known for the members of RAIG family. Three receptor types (RAIG1-3) are found in vertebrates, while RAIG4 is only present in mammals. They show distinct tissue distribution with RAIG1 being primarily expressed in the lung, RAIG2 in the brain and placenta, RAIG3 in the brain, kidney and liver, and RAIG4 in the skin. RAIG1 is evolutionarily conserved from mammals to fish. RAIG1 has been to shown to act as a tumor suppressor in non-small cell lung carcinoma as well as oral squamous cell carcinoma, but it could also act as an oncogene in breast cancer, colorectal cancer, and pancreatic cancer. Studies have shown that overexpression of RAIG1 decreases intracellular cAMP levels. Moreover, knocking out RAIG1 induces the activation of the NF-kB and STAT3 signaling pathways leading to cell proliferation and resistance to apoptosis. The specific function of RAIG4 is unknown; however, this protein may play a role in mediating the effects of retinoic acid on embryogenesis, differentiation, and tumorigenesis through interaction with a G-protein signaling cascade.
