| UniProt functional annotation for P20789 | |||
| UniProt code: P20789. |
| Organism: | Rattus norvegicus (Rat). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Glires; Rodentia; Myomorpha; Muroidea; Muridae; Murinae; Rattus. | |
| Function: | G-protein coupled receptor for the tridecapeptide neurotensin (NTS) (PubMed:23051748, PubMed:24453215, PubMed:26205105). Signaling is effected via G proteins that activate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system. Signaling leads to the activation of downstream MAP kinases and protects cells against apoptosis (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P30989, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1694443, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23051748, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24453215, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26205105}. | |
| Subunit: | Interacts (palmitoylated form) with GNA11. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P30989}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1694443, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24453215, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26205105}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1694443, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24453215, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26205105}. Membrane raft {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P30989}. Note=Palmitoylation is required for localization at CAV1-enriched membrane rafts. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P30989}. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Detected in brain and small intestine. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1694443}. | |
| Domain: | The ligand binding pocket consists mainly of extracellular loops ECL2 and ECL3, as well as transmembrane regions TM6 and TM7. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23051748, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26205105}. | |
| Ptm: | N-glycosylated. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P30989}. | |
| Ptm: | Palmitoylated; this is required for normal localization at membrane rafts and normal GNA11-mediated activation of down-stream signaling cascades. The palmitoylation level increases in response to neurotensin treatment. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P30989}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. Neurotensin receptor subfamily. NTSR1 sub-subfamily. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00521}. | |
