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.

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.

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.

tachykinin receptors and related receptors, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; This group includes the neurokinin/tachykinin receptors and its closely related receptors such as orphan GPR83 and leucokinin-like peptide receptor. 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.

ecdysis-triggering hormone receptors, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; This subgroup represents the ecdysis-triggering hormone receptors found in insects, which are members of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G-protein coupled receptors. 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. All GPCRs have a common structural architecture comprising of seven-transmembrane (TM) alpha-helices interconnected by three extracellular and three intracellular loops.

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.

cholecystokinin receptor type B, 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.

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.

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.

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. 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 135, member of the class A family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; GPR135, also known as the somatostatin- and angiotensin-like peptide receptor (SALPR), is found in various tissues including eye, brain, cervix, stomach, and testis. 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).

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.

Bombesin is a tetradecapeptide, originally isolated from frog skin. Mammalian bombesin-related peptides are widely distributed in the gastrointestinal and central nervous systems. The bombesin family receptors couple mainly to the G proteins of G(q/11) family. NMBR functions as the receptor for the neuropeptide neuromedin B, a potent mitogen and growth factor for normal and cancerous lung and for gastrointestinal epithelial tissues. Gastrin-releasing peptide is an endogenous ligand for GRPR and shares high sequence homology with NMB in the C-terminal region. Both NMB and GRP possess bombesin-like biochemical properties. BRS-3 is classified as an orphan receptor and suggested to play a role in sperm cell division and maturation. BRS-3 interacts with known naturally-occurring bombesin-related peptides with low affinity; however, no endogenous high-affinity ligand to the receptor has been identified. The bombesin receptor family belongs to the seven transmembrane rhodopsin-like G-protein coupled receptors (class A GPCRs), which perceive extracellular signals and transduce them to guanine nucleotide-binding (G) proteins.

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.

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.

H2R is found in various tissues such as the brain, stomach, and heart. Its most prominent role is in histamine-induced gastric acid secretion. 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.
