GRIS: glycoprotein-hormone receptor information system.
The glycoprotein-hormone receptor information system (GRIS) presents a comprehensive view on all available molecular data for the lutropin/choriogonadotropin receptor, follitropin receptor, and thyrotropin receptor G protein-coupled receptors. It features a mutation database presently containing 696 point mutations, combined with all sequences and the associated homology models. The mutation in...
متن کاملA sea lamprey glycoprotein hormone receptor similar with gnathostome thyrotropin hormone receptor.
The specificity of the vertebrate hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal and hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axes is explained by the evolutionary refinement of the specificity of expression and selectivity of interaction between the glycoprotein hormones GpH (FSH, LH, and TSH) and their cognate receptors GpH-R (FSH-R, LH-R, and TSH-R). These two finely tuned signaling pathways evolved by gene duplicati...
متن کاملGlycoprotein hormone receptors: link between receptor homodimerization and negative cooperativity.
The monomeric model of rhodopsin-like G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) has progressively yielded the floor to the concept of GPCRs being oligo(di)mers, but the functional correlates of dimerization remain unclear. In this report, dimers of glycoprotein hormone receptors were demonstrated in living cells, with a combination of biophysical (bioluminescence resonance energy transfer and homogen...
متن کاملModel of glycoprotein hormone receptor ligand binding and signaling.
Studies described here were initiated to develop a model of glycoprotein hormone receptor structure and function. We found that the region that links the lutropin receptor leucine-rich repeat domain (LRD) to its transmembrane domain (TMD) has substantial roles in ligand binding and signaling, hence we term it the signaling specificity domain (SSD). Theoretical considerations indicated the short...
متن کاملThyrostimulin, a heterodimer of two new human glycoprotein hormone subunits, activates the thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor.
Human thyrotropin (TSH), luteotropin (LH), follitropin (FSH), and chorionic gonadotropin are members of the heterodimeric glycoprotein hormone family. The common alpha subunit forms noncovalent heterodimers with different beta subunits. Two novel human glycoprotein hormonelike genes, alpha2 (A2) and beta5 (B5), recently have been identified. Using a yeast two-hybrid assay, the two subunits were...
