| Description | Growth hormone receptor precursor (GH receptor) (Somatotropinreceptor) [Contains: Growth hormone-binding protein (GH-bindingprotein) (GHBP) (Serum-binding protein)]. |
| Source organism | Ailuropoda melanoleuca (Giant panda) |
| Taxonomical Classification | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi;Mammalia; Eutheria; Laurasiatheria; Carnivora; Caniformia; Ursidae;Ailuropoda. |
| Subcellular location | Cell membrane; single-pass type I membrane protein (By similarity). Note=On growth hormone binding, GHR is ubiquitinated, internalized, down-regulated and transported into a degradative or non-degradative pathway (By similarity) |
| Developmental Stage | N/A |
| Similarity | Belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family. Type 1 subfamily. Contains 1 fibronectin type-III domain. |
| Tissue Specificity | N/A |
| Post translational modification | On GH binding, phosphorylated on tyrosine residues in the cytoplasmic domain by JAK2 (By similarity). On ligand binding, ubiquitinated on lysine residues in the cytoplasmic domain. This ubiquitination is not sufficient for GHR internalization (By similarity). |
| Function | Receptor for pituitary gland growth hormone involved in regulating postnatal body growth. On ligand binding, couples to the JAK2/STAT5 pathway (By similarity). The soluble form (GHBP) acts as a reservoir of growth hormone in plasma and may be a modulator/inhibitor of GH signaling (By similarity). |
| Protein Length | 638 Amino acids |
| Molecular weight | 70846 |
