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.

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.

They share several motifs, mainly the seven transmembrane helices, GCPRs of the rhodopsin superfamily. All opsins bind a chromophore, such as 11-cis-retinal. The function of most opsins other than the photoisomerases is split into two steps: light absorption and G-protein activation. Photoisomerases, on the other hand, are not coupled to G-proteins - they are thought to generate and supply the chromophore that is used by visual opsins.

neurokinin receptors (or tachykinin receptors), member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; This group represents G-protein coupled receptors for a variety of neuropeptides of the tachykinin (TK) family. 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 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.

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.

G protein-coupled receptor 45, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; This subgroup includes the human orphan receptor GPR45 and closely related proteins found in vertebrates. GPR45 is also called PSP24 in Xenopus and PSP24-alpha (or PSP24-1) in mammals. GPR45 shows the highest sequence homology with GPR63 (PSP24-beta, or PSP24-2). PSP24 was originally identified as a novel, high-affinity lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) receptor in Xenopus laevis oocytes; however, PSP24 receptors (GPR45 and GPR63) have not been shown to be activated by LPA. Mammalian PSP24 receptors are highly expressed in neuronal cells of cerebellum and their expression level remains constant from the early embryonic stages to adulthood, suggesting the important role of PSP24s in brain neuronal functions. 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.

G protein-coupled receptor 151, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; G-protein coupled receptor 151 (GRP151) is an orphan receptor of unknown function. Its expression is conserved in habenular axonal projections of vertebrates and may be a promising novel target for psychiatric drug development. GPR151 shows high sequence similarity with galanin receptors (GALR). GPR151 is a member of the class A rhodopsin-like GPCRs, which represent a widespread protein family that includes the light-sensitive rhodopsin as well as receptors for biogenic amines, lipids, nucleotides, odorants, peptide hormones, and a variety of other ligands.

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.

PSP24 was originally identified as a novel, high-affinity lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) receptor in Xenopus laevis oocytes; however, PSP24 receptors (GPR45 and GPR63) have not been shown to be activated by LPA. Instead, sphingosine 1-phosphate and dioleoylphosphatidic acid have been shown to act as low affinity agonists for GPR63.

Together they constitute the opioid receptor-like family, members of the class A G-protein coupled receptors. Opioid receptors are coupled to inhibitory G proteins of the G(i/o) family and are involved in regulating a variety of physiological functions such as pain, addiction, mood, stress, epileptic seizure, and obesity, among many others. G protein-coupled somatostatin receptors (SSTRs), which display strong sequence similarity with opioid receptors, binds 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. MCHR binds melanin concentrating hormone and is presumably involved in the neuronal regulation of food intake. Despite strong homology with somatostatin receptors, MCHR does not appear to bind somatostatin. Neuropeptides B/W receptors are primarily expressed in the CNS and stimulate the cortisol secretion by activating the adenylate cyclase- and the phospholipase C-dependent signaling pathways.

adenosine receptor subtype A2A, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; The A2A receptor, a member of the adenosine receptor family of G protein-coupled receptors, binds adenosine as its endogenous ligand and is involved in regulating myocardial oxygen consumption and coronary blood flow. High-affinity A2A and low-affinity A2B receptors are preferentially coupled to G proteins of the stimulatory (Gs) family, which lead to activation of adenylate cyclase and thereby increasing the intracellular cAMP levels. The A2A receptor activation protects against tissue injury and acts as anti-inflammatory agent. In human skin endothelial cells, activation of A2B receptor, but not the A2A receptor, promotes angiogenesis. Alternatively, activated A2A receptor, but not the A2B receptor, promotes angiogenesis in human umbilical vein and lung microvascular endothelial cells. The A2A receptor alters cardiac contractility indirectly by modulating the anti-adrenergic effect of A1 receptor, while the A2B receptor exerts direct effects on cardiac contractile function, but does not modulate beta-adrenergic or A1 anti-adrenergic effects.

neuromedin U receptor subtype 1, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; Neuromedin U (NMU) is a highly conserved neuropeptide with a common C-terminal heptapeptide sequence (FLFRPRN-amide) found at the highest levels in the gastrointestinal tract and pituitary gland of mammals. 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. 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.

CXC chemokine receptor type 6, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; CXCR6 binds specifically to the chemokine CXCL16, which is expressed on dendritic cells, monocyte/macrophages, activated T cells, fibroblastic reticular cells, and cancer cells. CXCR6 is phylogenetically more closely related to CC-type chemokine receptors (CCR6 and CCR9) than other CXC 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.

neuropeptide Y receptor-like found in insect and related proteins, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; This subgroup includes a novel G protein-coupled receptor (also known as PR4 receptor) from Drosophila melanogaster, which can be activated by the members of the neuropeptide Y (NPY) family, including NPY, peptide YY (PYY) and pancreatic polypeptide (PP), when expressed in Xenopus oocytes. 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. The tachykinins function as excitatory transmitters on neurons and cells in the gastrointestinal tract. Pssm-ID: 320514 [Multi-domain] Cd Length: 287 Bit Score: 39.27 E-value: 1.43e-03

neuropeptide FF receptors, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; Neuropeptide FF (NPFF) is a mammalian octapeptide that belongs to a family of neuropeptides containing an RF-amide motif at their C-terminus that have 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 these peptides 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. NPFF has been shown to inhibit adenylate cyclase via the Gi protein coupled to NPFF1-R. Pssm-ID: 320335 [Multi-domain] Cd Length: 291 Bit Score: 39.14 E-value: 1.59e-03

galanin receptor and related proteins, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; This subfamily includes G-protein coupled galanin receptors, kisspeptin receptor and allatostatin-A receptor (AstA-R) in insects. These receptors, which are members of the class A of seven transmembrane GPCRs, share a high degree of sequence homology among themselves. The galanin receptors bind galanin, a neuropeptide that is widely expressed in the brain, peripheral tissues, and endocrine glands. Galanin is implicated in numerous neurological and psychiatric diseases including Alzheimer's disease, eating disorders, and epilepsy, among many others. KiSS1-derived peptide receptor (also known as GPR54 or kisspeptin receptor) binds the peptide hormone kisspeptin (metastin), which encoded by the metastasis suppressor gene (KISS1) expressed in various endocrine and reproductive tissues. AstA-R is a G-protein coupled receptor that binds allatostatin A. Three distinct types of allatostatin have been identified in the insects and crustaceans: AstA, AstB, and AstC. They both inhibit the biosynthesis of juvenile hormone and exert an inhibitory influence on food intake. Therefore, allatostatins are considered as potential targets for insect control.

serotonin receptor subtype 2B, 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.

serotonin receptor subtypes 1, 5 and 7, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; This group includes serotonin receptor subtypes 1, 5, and 7 that are activated by the neurotransmitter serotonin. The 5-HT1 and 5-HT5 receptors mediate inhibitory neurotransmission by coupling to G proteins of the G(i/o) family. The 5-HT1 receptor subfamily includes 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, 5-HT1D, 5-HT1E, and 5-HT1F. 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.

alpha-2 adrenergic receptors subtype B, 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. Pssm-ID: 320444 [Multi-domain] Cd Length: 268 Bit Score: 37.21 E-value: 6.40e-03

atypical chemokine receptor 2, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; ACKR2 (also known as D6) binds non-selectively to all inflammatory CC-chemokines, but not to homeostatic CC-chemokines involved in controlling the migration of cells. Unlike the classical chemokine receptors that contain a conserved DRYLAIV motif in the second intracellular loop, which is required for G-protein coupling, 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: 320316 [Multi-domain] Cd Length: 278 Bit Score: 37.07 E-value: 6.79e-03

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: 36.59 E-value: 9.76e-03
