Adhesion G protein-coupled receptor F3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the gene ADGRF3 (previously GPR113).[5][6] The ADGRF3 protein is an orphan receptor that is part of the adhesion subfamily of G protein-coupled receptor.[7]

Gene

[edit]

The human GPR113 gene is located on chromosome 2 (2p23.3). This gene spans the length of a 38.65kb region from base 26531041 to 26569685 on the negative strand.[8] The GPR113 gene has two neighbors on either side on the negative strand: OTOF otoferlin preceding and HADHA hydroxyacyl-CoA following. Directly opposite the GPR113 on the positive strand is the EPT1 gene. The GPR113 gene is also known by the aliases PGR23 and HGPCR37.[9]

Evolution

[edit]

The GPR113 has 5 human paralogs GPR110, GPR115, GPR128, GPR111, and GPR116.[9] GPR113 is well conserved in mammals from primates to semi-aquatic species, as well as some amphibians. These include the Common Chimpanzee, the African Bush Elephant, the Platypus, and the Western Clawed Frog.[10] Homologous domains that are well conserved throughout orthologs center in the 7 transmembrane receptor (Secretin family) region highlighted in purple in the figure.[11]

Protein

[edit]
Annotated primary structure of the GPR113 Protein

The protein product of GPR113 gene is a G-protein coupled receptor. The protein has three transcript variants in humans.[12] Of these three, GPR113 Variant 1 has the longest amino acid sequence, and has the highest identity to orthologs. This leads to the conclusion that GPR113 Variant 1 is the homo sapiens descendant of the ancestral GPR113 gene. GPR113 Var 1 contains 1079 Amino Acids, and is integral to the plasma membrane.[13] The 7-pass receptor contains 4 domains highlighted in the figure at right: Signal Peptide (Red), Hormone Receptor Domain (Blue), Latrophilin/CL-1-like GPS domain (Orange), and the 7-transmembrane receptor (Purple). Between the Hormone Receptor Domain and the GPS is a Domain of unknown function that is not highlighted.

Clinical significance

[edit]

The clinical significance of this protein has not been established, but GPR113 has been found to be expressed differentially under diseased conditions. Under the condition of Type 2 diabetes, the percentile rank relative to other transcripts decreases relative to normal cell function.[14] The deletion of TP63, which mediates a wide variety of important body processes, also produces decreased GPR113 expression.[15] In mice brains, the cerebellum and the olfactory bulb both show transcription of the GPR113 gene.[16] Additionally, a study from the National Institute of Deafness and Other Communication Disorders has identified GPR113 expression to be highly restricted to a subset of taste receptor cells.[17] This paper's conclusions, coupled with olfactory bulb expression levels, could provide an avenue for future research, potentially illuminating more about GPR113's function.
