ADGRG5 Gene

HGNC Family G protein-coupled receptors
Name adhesion G protein-coupled receptor G5
Description This gene encodes a member of the adhesion family of G-protein coupled receptors. Members of this family are characterized by long N-termini and multiple functional domains. They may play a role in the immune system as well as in the central nervous system. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]
Summary
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\n ADGRG5, also known as GPR114, is an adhesion G protein‐coupled receptor (aGPCR) that has emerged as a noteworthy example of the tethered agonist activation mechanism common to this receptor family. Recent studies have identified natural splice variants of ADGRG5 that display distinct functional properties: one variant shows high constitutive cAMP signaling and sensitivity to mechano‐activation, whereas another exhibits low basal activity and is insensitive to mechanical cues. Detailed mutagenesis revealed that the N-terminal half of the Stachel (tethered agonist) sequence is critical for conferring agonistic activity, while its C-terminal portion plays an essential role in correctly orienting the agonistic core to the transmembrane domain."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": ""}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n "}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\n In addition, small molecule inhibitors have been identified that can selectively antagonize the peptide agonist–mediated activation of ADGRG5 without affecting its basal signaling. For instance, dihydromunduletone (DHM) was shown to inhibit both GPR56 and GPR114/ADGRG5 by counteracting the effects of the tethered peptide agonist, thereby emphasizing the potential of targeting this activation mechanism for therapeutic applications."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "2"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n "}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n "}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\n Genomic and phylogenetic analyses further place ADGRG5 within the adhesion GPCR family, highlighting its unique structural features—such as a large N-terminal extracellular region with adhesion-related domains and a conserved GPCR autoproteolysis-inducing (GAIN) domain—that likely contribute to specialized roles in cellular processes, including aspects of immune regulation. Differential expression patterns among family members suggest that ADGRG5 may be involved in cell-specific functions and distinct signaling events."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "3"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n "}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n "}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\n In summary, the current body of work characterizes ADGRG5 as an aGPCR that is activated through a tethered agonist mechanism modulated by alternative splicing and specific small molecule antagonists.
