gamma-aminobutyric acid type B receptor subunit 1, member of the class C family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; The type B receptor for gamma-aminobutyric acid, GABA-B, is activated by its endogenous ligand GABA, the principal inhibitory neurotransmitter. The functional GABA-B receptor is an obligatory heterodimer composed of two related subunits, GABA-B1, which is primarily involved in GABA ligand binding, and GABA-B2, which is responsible for both G-protein coupling and trafficking of the heterodimer to the plasma membrane. Activation of GABA-B couples to G(i/o)-type G proteins, which in turn modulate three major downstream effectors: adenylate cyclase, voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channels, and inwardly-rectifying K+ channels. Consequently, GABA-B receptor produces slow and sustained inhibitory responses by decreased neurotransmitter release via inhibition of Ca2+ channels and by postsynaptic hyperpolarization via the activation of K+ channels through the G-protein beta-gamma dimer. The GABA-B is expressed in both pre- and postsynaptic sites of glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons in the brain where it regulates synaptic activity. Thus, the GABA-B receptor agonist, baclofen, is used to treat muscle tightness and cramping caused by spasticity in multiple sclerosis patients. Moreover, GABA-B antagonists improves cognitive performance in mammals, while GABA-B agonists suppress cognitive behavior. In most of the class C family members, the extracellular Venus-flytrap domain in the N-terminus is connected to the seven-transmembrane (7TM) via a cysteine-rich domain (CRD). However, in the GABA-B receptor, the CRD is absent in both subunits and the Venus-flytrap ligand-binding domain is directly connected to the 7TM via a 10-15 amino acids linker, suggesting that GABA-B receptor may utilize a different activation mechanism. : Pssm-ID: 320418 Cd Length: 274 Bit Score: 487.61 E-value: 3.62e-168

The family C GPCRs consists of metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR), a calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR), gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor (GABAbR), the promiscuous L-alpha-amino acid receptor GPR6A, families of taste and pheromone receptors, and orphan receptors. Truncated splicing variants of the orphan receptors are not included in this CD. The family C GPCRs are activated by endogenous agonists such as amino acids, ions, and sugar based molecules. Their amino terminal ligand-binding region is homologous to the bacterial leucine-isoleucine-valine binding protein (LIVBP) and a leucine binding protein (LBP). The ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs) have an integral ion channel and are subdivided into three major groups based on their pharmacology and structural similarities: NMDA receptors, AMPA receptors, and kainate receptors. The family of membrane bound guanylyl cyclases is further divided into three subfamilies: the ANP receptor (GC-A)/C-type natriuretic peptide receptor (GC-B), the heat-stable enterotoxin receptor (GC-C)/sensory organ specific membrane GCs such as retinal receptors (GC-E, GC-F), and olfactory receptors (GC-D and GC-G).

ligand-binding domain of membrane guanylyl-cyclase receptors; Ligand-binding domain of membrane guanylyl-cyclase receptors. Membrane guanylyl cyclases (GC) have a single membrane-spanning region and are activated by endogenous and exogenous peptides.

The binding of peptide ligands to the receptor results in the activation of the cytosolic catalytic domain. Three types of NPRs have been cloned from mammalian tissues: NPR-A/GC-A, NPR-B/ GC-B, and NPR-C. In addition, two of the GCs, GC-D and GC-G, appear to be pseudogenes in humans. Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) are produced in the heart, and both bind to the NPR-A. NPR-C, also termed the clearance receptor, binds each of the natriuretic peptides and can alter circulating levels of these peptides.

Structurally, these receptors are typically composed of a large extracellular domain containing a Venus flytrap module which possesses the orthosteric agonist-binding site, a cysteine-rich domain (CRD) with the exception of GABA-B receptors, and the seven-transmembrane domains responsible for G protein activation. Moreover, the Venus flytrap module shows high structural homology with bacterial periplasmic amino acid-binding proteins, which serve as primary receptors in transport of a variety of soluble substrates such as amino acids and polysaccharides, among many others. The class C GPCRs exist as either homo- or heterodimers, which are essential for their function. The GABA-B1 and GABA-B2 receptors form a heterodimer via interactions between the N-terminal Venus flytrap modules and the C-terminal coiled-coiled domains. On the other hand, heterodimeric CaSRs and Tas1Rs and homodimeric mGluRs utilize Venus flytrap interactions and intermolecular disulphide bonds between cysteine residues located in the cysteine-rich domain (CRD), which can also acts as a molecular link to mediate the signal between the Venus flytrap and the 7TMs. Furthermore, members of the class C GPCRs bind a variety of endogenous ligands, ranging from amino acids, ions, to pheromones and sugar molecules, and play important roles in many physiological processes such as synaptic transmission, calcium homeostasis, and the sensation of sweet and umami tastes.

The family C GPCR includes glutamate/glycine-gated ion channels such as the NMDA receptor, G-protein-coupled receptors, metabotropic glutamate, GABA-B, calcium sensing, pheromone receptors, and atrial natriuretic peptide-guanylate cyclase receptors. The glutamate receptors that form cation-selective ion channels, iGluR, can be classified into three different subgroups according to their binding-affinity for the agonists NMDA (N-methyl-D-asparate), AMPA (alpha-amino-3-dihydro-5-methyl-3-oxo-4-isoxazolepropionic acid), and kainate. L-glutamate is a major neurotransmitter in the brain of vertebrates and acts through either mGluRs or iGluRs. mGluRs subunits possess seven transmembrane segments and a large N-terminal extracellular domain. ABC-type leucine-isoleucine-valine binding protein (LIVBP) is a bacterial periplasmic binding protein that has homology with the amino-terminal domain of the glutamate-receptor ion channels (iGluRs). The extracellular regions of iGluRs are made of two PBP-like domains in tandem, a LIVBP-like domain that constitutes the N terminus (included in this model) followed by a domain related to lysine-arginine-ornithine-binding protein (LAOBP) that belongs to the type 2 periplasmic binding fold protein superfamily. The uncharacterized periplasmic components of various ABC-type transport systems are also included in this family. Pssm-ID: 380490 Cd Length: 306 Bit Score: 94.29 E-value: 6.90e-21

These PBPs bind their substrates selectively and with high affinity. Members of this group include ABC-type Leucine-Isoleucine-Valine-Binding Proteins (LIVBP), which are homologous to the aliphatic amidase transcriptional repressor, AmiC, of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

The metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR) are key receptors in the modulation of excitatory synaptic transmission in the central nervous system. The mGluRs are coupled to G proteins and are thus distinct from the iGluRs which internally contain ligand-gated ion channels. The mGluR structure is divided into three regions: the extracellular region, the seven-spanning transmembrane region and the cytoplasmic region. The extracellular region is further divided into the ligand-binding domain (LBD) and the cysteine-rich domain. The LBD has sequence similarity to the LIVBP, which is a bacterial periplasmic protein (PBP), as well as to the extracellular region of both iGluR and the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)b receptor. iGluRs are divided into three main subtypes based on pharmacological profile: NMDA, AMPA, and kainate receptors.

There are three types of natriuretic peptide (NP) ligands specific to the receptors: atrial NP (ANP), brain or B-type NP (BNP), and C-type NP (CNP). The NP family is thought to have arisen through gene duplication during evolution and plays an essential role in cardiovascular and body fluid homeostasis. ANP and BNP bind mainly to NPR-A, while CNP binds specifically to NPR-B. Both NPR-A and NPR-B have guanylyl cyclase catalytic activity and produces intracellular secondary messenger cGMP in response to peptide-ligand binding. Consequently, the NPR-A activation results in vasodilation and inhibition of vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation. NPR-C acts as the receptor for all the three members of NP family, and functions as a clearance receptor. Unlike NPR-A and -B, NPR-C lacks an intracellular guanylyl cyclase domain and is thought to exert biological actions by sequestration of released natriuretic peptides and/or inhibition of adenylyl cyclase.

orphan GPR158 and similar proteins, member of the class C family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; This group includes orphan receptors GPR158, GPR158-like (also called GPR179) and similar proteins. These orphan receptors are closely related to the type B receptor for gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA-B), which is activated by its endogenous ligand GABA, the principal inhibitory neurotransmitter. The functional GABA-B receptor is an obligatory heterodimer composed of two related subunits, GABA-B1, which is primarily involved in GABA ligand binding, and GABA-B2, which is responsible for both G-protein coupling and trafficking of the heterodimer to the plasma membrane. Activation of GABA-B couples to G(i/o)-type G proteins, which in turn modulate three major downstream effectors: adenylate cyclase, voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channels, and inwardly-rectifying K+ channels. Consequently, GABA-B receptor produces slow and sustained inhibitory responses by decreased neurotransmitter release via inhibition of Ca2+ channels and by postsynaptic hyperpolarization via the activation of K+ channels through the G-protein beta-gamma dimer. The GABA-B is expressed in both pre- and postsynaptic sites of glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons in the brain where it regulates synaptic activity. Thus, the GABA-B receptor agonist, baclofen, is used to treat muscle tightness and cramping caused by spasticity in multiple sclerosis patients. Moreover, GABA-B antagonists improves cognitive performance in mammals, while GABA-B agonists suppress cognitive behavior. In most of the class C family members, the extracellular Venus-flytrap domain in the N-terminus is connected to the seven-transmembrane (7TM) via a cysteine-rich domain (CRD). However, in the GABA-B receptor, the CRD is absent in both subunits and the Venus-flytrap ligand-binding domain is directly connected to the 7TM via a 10-15 amino acids linker, suggesting that GABA-B receptor may utilize a different activation mechanism.

ligand-binding domain of type C natriuretic peptide receptor; Ligand-binding domain of type C natriuretic peptide receptor (NPR-C). NPR-C is found in atrial, mesentery, placenta, lung, kidney, venous tissue, aortic smooth muscle, and aortic endothelial cells. The affinity of NPR-C for natriuretic peptides is ANP>CNP>BNP. The extracellular domain of NPR-C is about 30% identical to NPR-A and NPR-B. However, unlike the cyclase-linked receptors, it contains only 37 intracellular amino acids and no guanylyl cyclase activity. Major function of NPR-C is to clear natriuretic peptides from the circulation or extracellular surroundings through constitutive receptor-mediated internalization and degradation.

CaSR provides feedback control of extracellular calcium homeostasis by responding sensitively to acute fluctuations in extracellular ionized Ca2+ concentration. This ligand-binding domain has homology to the bacterial leucine-isoleucine-valine binding protein (LIVBP) and a leucine binding protein (LBP). CaSR is widely expressed in mammalian tissues and is active in tissues that are not directly involved in extracellular calcium homeostasis. Moreover, CaSR responds to aromatic, aliphatic, and polar amino acids, but not to positively charged or branched chain amino acids, which suggests that changes in plasma amino acid levels are likely to modulate whole body calcium metabolism. Additionally, the family C GPCRs includes at least two receptors with broad-spectrum amino acid-sensing properties: GPRC6A which recognizes basic and various aliphatic amino acids, its gold-fish homolog the 5.24 chemoreceptor, and a specific taste receptor (T1R) which responds to aliphatic, polar, charged, and branched amino acids, but not to aromatic amino acids.

Natriuretic peptides are family of structurally related but genetically distinct hormones/paracrine factors that regulate blood volume, blood pressure, ventricular hypertrophy, pulmonary hypertension, fat metabolism, and long bone growth. In mammals there are three natriuretic peptides: ANP, BNP, and CNP. Like NPR-A (or GC-A), NPR-B (or GC-B) is a transmembrane guanylyl cyclase, an enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of cGMP. NPR-B is the predominant natriuretic peptide receptor in the brain. The rank of order activation of NPR-B by natriuretic peptides is CNP>>ANP>BNP.

metabotropic glutamate receptors, member of the class C family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; The metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) are homodimeric class C G-protein coupled receptors which are activated by glutamate, the major excitatory neurotransmitter of the CNS. mGluRs are involved in regulating neuronal excitability and synaptic transmission via intracellular activation of second messenger signaling pathways. While the ionotropic glutamate receptor subtypes (AMPA, NMDA, and kainite) mediate fast excitatory postsynaptic transmission, mGluRs are known to mediate slower excitatory postsynaptic responses and to be involved in synaptic plasticity in the mammalian brain. In addition to seven-transmembrane helices, the class C GPCRs are characterized by a large N-terminal extracellular Venus flytrap-like domain, which is composed of two adjacent lobes separated by a cleft which binds an endogenous ligand. Moreover, they exist as either homo- or heterodimers, which are essential for their function. For instance, mGluRs form homodimers via interactions between the N-terminal Venus flytrap domains and the intermolecular disulphide bonds between cysteine residues located in the cysteine-rich domain (CRD). At least eight different subtypes of metabotropic receptors (mGluR1-8) have been identified and further classified into three groups based on their sequence homology, pharmacological properties, and signaling pathways. Group 1 (mGluR1 and mGluR5) receptors are predominantly located postsynaptically on neurons and are involved in long-term synaptic plasticity in the brain, including long-term potentiation (LTP) in the hippocampus and long-term depression (LTD) in the cerebellum. They are coupled to G(q/11) proteins, thereby activating phospholipase C to generate inositol-1,4,5-triphosphate (IP3) and diacyglycerol (DAG), which in turn lead to Ca2+ release and protein kinase C activation, respectively. Group I mGluR expression is shown to be strongly upregulated in animal models of epilepsy, brain injury, inflammatory, and neuropathic pain, as well as in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or multiple sclerosis. Group 2 (mGluR2 and mGluR3) and 3 (mGluR4, mGluR6, mGluR7, and mGluR8) receptors are predominantly localized presynaptically in the active region of neurotransmitter release. They are coupled to (Gi/o) proteins, which leads to inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity and cAMP formation, and consequently to a decrease in protein kinase A (PKA) activity. Ultimately, activation of these receptors leads to inhibition of neurotransmitter release such as glutamate and GABA via inhibition of Ca2+ channels and activation of K+ channels. Furthermore, while activation of Group 1 mGluRs increases NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptor activity and risk of neurotoxicity, Group 2 and 3 mGluRs decrease NMDA receptor activity and prevent neurotoxicity.

metabotropic glutamate receptor 2 in group 2, member of the class C family of seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors; The metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) in group 2 include mGluR 2 and 3. They are homodimeric class C G-protein coupled receptors which are activated by glutamate, the major excitatory neurotransmitter of the CNS. mGluRs are involved in regulating neuronal excitability and synaptic transmission via intracellular activation of second messenger signaling pathways. While the ionotropic glutamate receptor subtypes (AMPA, NMDA, and kainite) mediate fast excitatory postsynaptic transmission, mGluRs are known to mediate slower excitatory postsynaptic responses and to be involved in synaptic plasticity in the mammalian brain. In addition to seven-transmembrane helices, the class C GPCRs are characterized by a large N-terminal extracellular Venus flytrap-like domain, which is composed of two adjacent lobes separated by a cleft which binds an endogenous ligand. Moreover, they exist as either homo- or heterodimers, which are essential for their function. For instance, mGluRs form homodimers via interactions between the N-terminal Venus flytrap domains and the intermolecular disulphide bonds between cysteine residues located in the cysteine-rich domain (CRD). At least eight different subtypes of metabotropic receptors (mGluR1-8) have been identified and further classified into three groups based on their sequence homology, pharmacological properties, and signaling pathways. Group 1 (mGluR1 and mGluR5) receptors are predominantly located postsynaptically on neurons and are involved in long-term synaptic plasticity in the brain, including long-term potentiation (LTP) in the hippocampus and long-term depression (LTD) in the cerebellum. They are coupled to G(q/11) proteins, thereby activating phospholipase C to generate inositol-1,4,5-triphosphate (IP3) and diacyglycerol (DAG), which in turn lead to Ca2+ release and protein kinase C activation, respectively. Group 1 mGluR expression is shown to be strongly upregulated in animal models of epilepsy, brain injury, inflammatory, and neuropathic pain, as well as in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or multiple sclerosis. Group 2 (mGluR2 and mGluR3) and 3 (mGluR4, mGluR6, mGluR7, and mGluR8) receptors are predominantly localized presynaptically in the active region of neurotransmitter release. They are coupled to G(i/o) proteins, which leads to inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity and cAMP formation, and consequently to a decrease in protein kinase A (PKA) activity. Ultimately, activation of these receptors leads to inhibition of neurotransmitter release such as glutamate and GABA via inhibition of Ca2+ channels and activation of K+ channels. Furthermore, while activation of Group 1 mGluRs increases NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptor activity and risk of neurotoxicity, Group 2 and 3 mGluRs decrease NMDA receptor activity and prevent neurotoxicity.

periplasmic substrate-binding domain of active transport proteins (substrate binding proteins or SBPs); Periplasmic substrate-binding domain of active transport proteins found in bacteria and Archaea. Members of this group are initial receptors in the process of active transport across cellular membrane, but their substrate specificities are not known in detail. However, they closely resemble the group of AmiC and active transport systems for short-chain amides and urea (FmdDEF), and thus are likely to exhibit a ligand-binding mode similar to that of the amide sensor protein AmiC from Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Moreover, this binding domain has high sequence identity to the family of hydrophobic amino acid transporters (HAAT), and thus it may also be involved in transport of amino acids.
