UniProt functional annotation for P35348

UniProt code: P35348.

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo.
 
Function: This alpha-adrenergic receptor mediates its action by association with G proteins that activate a phosphatidylinositol- calcium second messenger system. Its effect is mediated by G(q) and G(11) proteins. Nuclear ADRA1A-ADRA1B heterooligomers regulate phenylephrine(PE)-stimulated ERK signaling in cardiac myocytes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18802028, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22120526}.
 
Subunit: Homo- and heterooligomer. Heterooligomerizes with ADRA1B homooligomers in cardiac myocytes (PubMed:22120526). Interacts with CAVIN4 (PubMed:24567387). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22120526, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24567387}.
Subcellular location: Nucleus membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:24567387}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000255}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:24567387}. Membrane, caveola {ECO:0000269|PubMed:24567387}. Note=Location at the nuclear membrane facilitates heterooligomerization and regulates ERK- mediated signaling in cardiac myocytes. Colocalizes with GNAQ, PLCB1 as well as LAP2 at the nuclear membrane of cardiac myocytes.
Tissue specificity: Expressed in heart, brain, liver and prostate, but not in kidney, lung, adrenal, aorta and pituitary. Within the prostate, expressed in the apex, base, periurethral and lateral lobe. Isoform 4 is the most abundant isoform expressed in the prostate with high levels also detected in liver and heart. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:7737411, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8196478, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9490024}.
Ptm: C-terminal Ser or Thr residues may be phosphorylated. {ECO:0000250}.
Miscellaneous: [Isoform 7]: May be produced at very low levels due to a premature stop codon in the mRNA, leading to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. {ECO:0000305}.
Similarity: Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. Adrenergic receptor subfamily. ADRA1A sub-subfamily. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00521}.
Sequence caution: [Isoform 2]: Sequence=ACA05900.1; Type=Erroneous gene model prediction; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; Sequence=BAA06901.1; Type=Frameshift; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
