Summary
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nOdorant response abnormal 4 (ODR4), the human homolog encoded by C1orf27, plays a pivotal role in the anterograde trafficking of G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs). Studies demonstrate that ODR4 is essential for the efficient export of newly synthesized GPCRs from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi apparatus and ultimately to the cell surface. Its depletion, either by siRNA‐mediated knockdown or CRISPR-Cas9 knockout, markedly slows the ER-to-Golgi export kinetics and reduces the cell surface delivery of key GPCRs such as the α1A-adrenergic, α2-adrenergic, and dopamine D2 receptors, while leaving receptors like the epidermal growth factor receptor unaffected."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "Mechanistically, ODR4 exerts its function by physically interacting with nascent GPCRs, specifically binding to the third intracellular loop and the C-terminal region of the α1A-adrenergic receptor. This interaction facilitates proper receptor folding or stabilizes critical intermediates during trafficking, thereby ensuring correct membrane targeting and optimal receptor function. Together, these findings reveal ODR4 as a crucial mediator in the early biosynthetic pathway of select GPCR family members, offering novel insights into the regulation of receptor surface expression and potential targets for modulating GPCR-dependent signaling pathways."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": ""}]}, {"type": "rg", "children": [{"type": "r", "ref": 1, "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "Xin Xu, Guangyu Wu "}, {"type": "b", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "Human C1orf27 protein interacts with α"}, {"type": "a", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "sub"}], "href": "sub"}, {"type": "t", "text": "2A"}, {"type": "a", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "/sub"}], "href": "/sub"}, {"type": "t", "text": "-adrenergic receptor and regulates its anterograde transport."}]}, {"type": "t", "text": " "}, {"type": "i", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "J Biol Chem (2022)"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": " DOI: "}, {"type": "a", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "10.1016/j.jbc.2022.102021"}], "href": "https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jbc.2022.102021"}, {"type": "t", "text": " PMID: "}, {"type": "a", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "35551911"}], "href": "https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35551911"}]}]}]}
