DescriptionGrowth hormone receptor precursor (GH receptor) (Somatotropinreceptor) [Contains: Growth hormone-binding protein (GH-bindingprotein) (GHBP) (Serum-binding protein)].
Source organismHomo sapiens (Human)
Taxonomical ClassificationEukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi;Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini;Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo.
Subcellular locationCell membrane; single-pass type I membrane protein. GHBP: Secreted protein. Note=On growth hormone binding, GHR is ubiquitinated, internalized, down-regulated and transported into a degradative or non-degradative pathway (By similarity). Isoform 2 remains fixed to the cell membrane and is not internalized. The proteolytic processed protein, GHBP, is secreted
Developmental StageN/A
Similarity Belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family. Type 1 subfamily. Contains 1 fibronectin type-III domain.
Tissue SpecificityExpressed in various tissues with high expression in liver and skeletal muscle. Isoform 4 is predominantly expressed in kidney, bladder, adrenal gland and brain stem. In the placenta, isoform 1 predominantly expressed in chorion and decidua, isoform 4 highly expressed in villi. Isoform 2 is expressed in lung, stomach and muscle. Low levels in liver.
Post translational modification The soluble form (GHBP) is produced by phorbol ester-promoted proteolytic cleavage at the cell surface (shedding) by ADAM17/TACE. Shedding is inhibited by growth hormone (GH) binding to the receptor probably due to a conformational change in GHR rendering the receptor inaccessible to ADAM17 (By similarity). 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. Isoform 2 up-regulates the production of GHBP and acts as a negative inhibitor of GH signaling.
