Primary Transduction Mechanisms Click here for help
Transducer Effector/Response
Gs family Adenylyl cyclase stimulation
Comments:  The study verified the Gs protein-coupling by Gαs knockdown with siRNA, overexpression of Gαs, coexpression of the chimeric Gqs4 protein that routes ADGRD1 activity to the phospholipase C/inositol phosphate pathway, and missense mutation within the transmembrane domain that abolished receptor activity without changing cell surface expression.

General Comments
ADGRD1 (formerly GPR133) [21] is an orphan receptor belonging to Family V Adhesion-GPCRs together with ADGRD2 (formerly GPR144) [7]. The gene is localized on human chromosome 12 and mouse chromosome 5. ADGRD1 and ADGRD2 are the Adhesion-GPCRs most closely related to the Secretin class of GPCRs [18]. A search for homologs in the invertebrates like ciona and amphioxus revealed that ADGRD1 and ADGRD2 are well conserved in pre-vertebrate genomes [10,18]. The N terminus of ADGRD1 contains a GPCR proteolysis site (GPS) and a pentraxin (PTX) domain. As of now, the function of ADGRD1 is unknown, however, recent studies revealed a strong association with body height [11-12,20] and bone mineral density [19]. Further, ADGRD1 mRNA is transcriptionally upregulated by hypoxia and high expression correlates with glioblastoma growth in humans [1]. Moreover, ADGRD1 is one of the few Adhesion-GPCRs that are experimentally proven to bind to G protein (GαS subunit) and also to activate adenylate cyclase pathway [4]. The last 12 exons out of 26 were identified as a GPCR in gene predictions [3]. An additional 4 exons were predicted and confirmed as PGR25 [22]. The complete human coding sequence is identified by the cDNA AY532280. Note that the ADGRD1 of [21] refers to a different receptor which is now called OR5212, i.e. a nominal olfactory receptor.

The mouse cDNA, AK153762 from neonatal thymus, contains an extra coding exon compared to the human brain cDNA AY532280 . It is located between human exons 3 and 4.

The full coding sequence human cDNA is publicly available (see I.M.A.G.E), as IMAGE:8327775 and IMAGE:8327777. A transcript variant, which represents about 50% of brain cDNA, splices out the 180 base exon 5 and is available as IMAGE:8317337.
