G-protein Coupled Receptor Dimerization
A growing body of evidence suggests that GPCRs exist and function as dimers or higher oligomers. The evidence for GPCR dimerization comes from biochemical, biophysical and functional studies. In addition, researchers have shown the occurrence of heterodimerization between different members of the GPCR family. Two receptors can interact with each other to make a dimer through their extracellular...
متن کاملMolecular cloning and characterization of a novel human G-protein-coupled receptor, EDG7, for lysophosphatidic acid.
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), together with sphingosine 1-phosphate, is a bioactive lipid mediator that acts on G-protein-coupled receptors to evoke multiple cellular responses, including Ca(2+) mobilization, modulation of adenylyl cyclase, and mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase activation. In this study, we isolated a human cDNA encoding a novel G-protein-coupled receptor, designated EDG7, ...
متن کاملMolecular cloning and characterization of the human A3 adenosine receptor.
The human A3 adenosine receptor was cloned from a striatal cDNA library using a probe derived from the homologous rat sequence. The cDNA encodes a protein of 318 amino acids and exhibits 72% and 85% overall identity with the rat and sheep A3 adenosine receptor sequences, respectively. Specific and saturable binding of the adenosine receptor agonist N6-(4-amino-3-[125I]iodobenzyl)adenosine [125I...
متن کاملCloning and Characterization of Spliced Variants of the Porcine G Protein Coupled Receptor 120
The polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) receptor GPR120 exerts a significant impact on systemic nutrient homeostasis in human and rodents. However, the porcine GPR120 (pGPR120) has not been well characterized. In the current study, we found that pGPR120 had 3 spliced variants. Transcript 1 encoded 362-amino acids (aa) wild type pGPR120-WT, which shared 88% homology with human short form GPR120....
متن کاملMolecular cloning and expression of an avian G protein-coupled P2Y receptor.
A family of G protein-coupled P2Y receptors that are activated by adenine and uridine nucleotides has been identified recently. Degenerate primers based on conserved sequences in these P2Y receptors were used to amplify turkey DNA, which was used to isolate the complete coding sequence of a cDNA that encodes a novel G protein-coupled receptor. Stable expression of this avian cDNA in 1321N1 huma...
