| UniProt functional annotation for P30989 | |||
| UniProt code: P30989. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | G-protein coupled receptor for the tridecapeptide neurotensin (NTS) (PubMed:8381365, PubMed:21725197, PubMed:23140271). 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 (PubMed:21725197). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21725197, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23140271, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8381365}. | |
| Subunit: | Interacts (palmitoylated form) with GNA11. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21725197, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23140271}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8381365}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000305}. Membrane raft {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21725197}. Note=Palmitoylation is required for localization at CAV1-enriched membrane rafts. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21725197}. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Expressed in prostate (at protein level). Detected in colon and peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Detected at very low levels in brain. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20048080, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8381365}. | |
| Domain: | The ligand binding pocket consists mainly of extracellular loops ECL2 and ECL3, as well as transmembrane regions TM6 and TM7. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P20789}. | |
| Ptm: | N-glycosylated. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21725197}. | |
| 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:0000269|PubMed:21725197}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. Neurotensin receptor subfamily. NTSR1 sub-subfamily. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00521}. | |
