Expression profile of the entire family of AdhesionG protein-coupled receptors in mouse and rat

Abstract: Background: The Adhesion G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are membrane-bound receptors with long N termini. This family has 33 members in humans. Several Adhesion GPCRs are known to have important physiological functions in CNS development and immune system response mediated by large cell surface ligands. However, the majority of Adhesion GPCRs are still poorly studied orphans with unknown functions.

“…The high affinity of this binding (K D = 1-20 nM), along with the nature of C1ql proteins as small secreted proteins and of BAI3 as a membrane-bound GPCR, suggest that BAI3 is a genuine receptor for C1ql proteins in the brain. Both C1ql and BAI3 proteins are expressed in adult animals almost exclusively in the brain and appear to be enriched in neurons (11,12,31). Strikingly, the addition of the recombinant gC1q domains of C1ql proteins to the medium of cultured hippocampal neurons caused significant decreases in synapse density without affecting other measured morphological parameters (Figs.…”

“…The extracellular sequences of BAI proteins are composed of an N-terminal CUB domain, five (BAI1) or four (BAI2 and BAI3) thrombospondin type 1 repeats, a hormonebinding domain, and the GPS (10,11). RNA quantification and in situ hybridization have indicated that in adult mice, BAI proteins are expressed primarily in the brain, with low-level expression in other tissues (12)(13)(14)(15). The BAI1 gene, originally identified in a screen for p53-inducible genes, is thought to inhibit neovascularization, a process required for tumor growth (10,13,(16)(17)(18)(19).…”

“…AY140958). They have been classified as novel aGPCR in human and encode putative aGPCR in the mouse genome (Fredriksson et al, 2002;Bjarnadottir et al, 2007;Haitina et al, 2008;Lum et al, 2010). Gpr116 was initially named Ig-Hepta because of its two immunoglobulin and 7TM spanning domains (Abe et al, 1999).…”

“…Nervous System and Behavior. Most Adhesion GPCRs are present in nervous tissues, and some are especially highly expressed in the brain (Haitina et al, 2008;Regard et al, 2008). While not critical for the survival of individual neurons per se, these Adhesion GPCRs seem to jointly control various high-level functions that are characteristic of the brain as an organ.…”
