ADGRD1 Membrane Protein Introduction

Introduction of ADGRD1

ADGRD1, also known as G-protein coupled receptor 133 (GPR133) or G-protein coupled receptor PGR25 (PGR25), is a protein encoded by the human GPR133 gene. It belongs to the adhesion-GPCR family which is characterized by an extended extracellular region with a variable number of protein domains coupled to a TM7 domain via a domain known as the GPCR-Autoproteolysis INducing (GAIN) domain. Moreover, it also has high basal activity with high expression levels at the cell surface.

Function of ADGRD1 Membrane Protein

Studies have found that ADGRD1, an orphan adhesion G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), is enriched in CD133-expressing GBM cells with enhanced tumorigenic potential. ADGRD1 is also found in the hypoxic areas of pseudopalisading necrosis in human biospecimens. Recently, studies reveal that there are strong associations between GPR133 and various biological processes, including but not limited to human weight, HIV-1 pathogenesis, the heat shock response, and sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Moreover, GPR133 is experimentally proven to activate the adenylate cyclase pathway by binding to Gαqs4 (Gα protein) and involve in cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-stimulated cell proliferation. And ADGRD1 could couple to the Gs protein/adenylyl cyclase signaling pathway and is activated by a tethered agonist.

Application of ADGRD1 Membrane Protein in Literature

1. Bayin NS, et.al. GPR133 (ADGRD1), an adhesion G-protein-coupled receptor, is necessary for glioblastoma growth. Oncogenesis. 2016, 5(10): e263. PubMed ID: 5117849

This article suggests that GPR133 is an important mediator of the hypoxic response in GBM and has significant protumorigenic functions. And it may be used as a novel molecular target in GBM and possibly other malignancies where hypoxia is fundamental to pathogenesis.

This article reveals that there is a variety of functionally relevant ADGRD1 variants in the human population which may cause clinically relevant phenotypes while being compatible with life when heterozygous.

3. Frenster JD, et.al. GPR133 Promotes Glioblastoma Growth in Hypoxia. Neurosurgery. 2017, 64: 177-81. PubMed ID: 28899043

This article suggests that GPR133 plays an important protumorigenic role in GBM, particularly in the context of hypoxia. And it can be used as a novel therapeutic target.
