The long-term objectives of my research program are to understand G-protein coupled receptor function. G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) sense and traduce signals from numerous effector molecules and play an essential role in coordinating the ability of cells to rapidly respond to its environment. Specifically, my research is focused on understanding function of non-canonically activated G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). This proposal will focus on the Adhesion G-protein-coupled Receptor-G1 (ADGRG1; also known as GPR56). ADGRG1 is a member of the autocatalytically activated Adhesion Family of GPCRs.******ADGRG1 undergoes an auto-catalytic event at a site called the GPCR proteolysis site (GPS), that results in the cell surface expression of a heterodimer consisting of 2 chains, a large extracellular N-terminal fragment (ADGRG1-NT) and a membrane-bound C-terminal fragment (ADGRG1-CT) which remain associated and non-covalently linked. It is believed that the ADGRG-NT is removed from ADGRG-CT through binding to extracellular matrix components and shear force resulting in ADGRG1-CT disinhibition, release and engagement of a tethered ligand and receptor signalling through G--proteins and --arrestin.******The unique proteolytic mode of activation for ADGRG1 results in irreversible activation and these receptors are often described as “one and done” GPCRs. This is in contrast to the reversible binding of a soluble hormone that activates most well studies GPCRs such as the 2--adrenergic receptor (2-AR) or the angiotensin II receptor type 1 (AT1) that are frequently recycled back to the cell surface following internalization and dissociation of the ligand from the receptor. It follows that adhesion GPCRs might engage intracellular sorting mechanisms and compartmentalized signalling that are distinct from those for soluble hormone binding GPCRs.******Overarching hypothesis: ADGRG1 engages intracellular vesicular trafficking and signalling pathways that are distinct from other hormone activated GPCRs such as 2-AR and AT1 as a result of irreversible auto-catalytic activation.******In order to understand ADGRG1 signalling and trafficking, in the short-term, we will:******Aim 1. Define ADGRG1 C-terminal tail amino acid sequences regulating interaction with the --arrestins.***Aim 2. Define the vesicular trafficking route for internalization of ADGRG1 and the vesicular trafficking route for de-novo synthesized receptor trafficking to the cell membrane.***Aim 3. Define the cell surface and endosomal signalling repertoire for ADGRG1. ******Significance: These studies will address fundamental questions regarding the signaling and vesicular transport mechanisms of a non-canonically activated GPCR. Given the important physiological roles and unique mechanisms of activation of this class of receptors, it is likely that these studies will reveal the diversity of pathways and mechanisms regulating the signaling and endocytic fate of GPCRs.

我的研究计划的长期目标是了解来自众多效应子分子的G蛋白偶联受体（GPCR）的感官和翻译信号，并在协调中起着至关重要的作用。细胞能够快速响应其环境。具体而言，我的研究集中在理解非统计激活的G蛋白偶联受体（GPCR）的功能上。该提案将集中于G蛋白偶联受体G1的粘附（ADGRG1；也称为GPR56）。 ADGRG1 is a member of the autocatalytically activated Adhesion Family of GPCRs.****ADGRG1 undergoes an auto-catalytic event at a site called the GPCR proteolysis site (GPS), that results in the cell surface expression of a heterodimer consisting of 2 chains, a large extracellular N-terminal fragment (ADGRG1-NT) and a membrane-bound C-terminal fragment （ADGRG1-CT）保持关联且无共价链接。人们认为，通过与细胞外基质组件的结合和剪切力从ADGRG-CT中删除，从而导致ADGRG1-CT抑制作用，通过g-蛋白和 - arterestin和 - arrdestin of Actrestion Actrestion Ascration Actrestion Ascration Ascration Ascration Ascribation Ascribation Ascripation Ascrestion As Asistion As Asistion Ass Asistion As Inforge in Inrere con中的ADGRG1-CT抑制，释放和互动，并参与其中，并参与其中，并将其释放和参与。********并完成了” GPCR。这与实心马的可逆结合形成鲜明对比，后者激活了大多数井研究GPCR，例如2-肾上腺素能受体（2-AR）或血管紧张素II受体1型（AT1），这些受体经常被回收回到乳剂与受体内部化和分离后回收回细胞表面。因此，粘附GPCR可能会参与细胞内分类机制和隔室的信号传导，这些信号与固体马酮结合GPCR不同。****总体假设：ADGRG1与细胞内囊泡贩运和信号途径不同，与其他Horsene激活的GPCR（例如2-ar和At at 1）不同，这些途径与其他Horsene激活的GPCR相同。 **********为了理解ADGRG1信号传导和贩运​​，我们将：****** AIM 1。定义调节与-arrestins相互作用的ADGRG1 C末端尾氨基酸序列。**** AIM 2。膜。 *****重要性：这些研究将解决有关非统一激活GPCR的信号传导和囊泡运输机制的基本问题。鉴于这类受体的重要生理作用和激活的独特机制，这些研究很可能会揭示途径和机制的多样性，以节省GPCR的信号传导和内吞命运。
