| Description | Growth hormone receptor (GH receptor) (Somatotropin receptor) [Cleaved into- Growth hormone-binding protein (GH-binding protein) (GHBP) (Serum-binding protein)] |
| Organism | Rattus norvegicus |
| Txonomy | Rattus ; Murinae ; Muridae ; Muroidea ; Myomorpha ; Rodentia ; Glires ; Euarchontoglires ; Boreoeutheria ; Eutheria ; Theria ; Mammalia ; Amniota ; Tetrapoda ; Dipnotetrapodomorpha ; Sarcopterygii ; Euteleostomi ; Teleostomi ; Gnathostomata ; Vertebrata ; Craniata ; Chordata ; Deuterostomia ; Bilateria ; Eumetazoa ; Metazoa ; Opisthokonta ; Eukaryota ; cellular organisms |
| Subcellular Location | Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Note=On growth hormone binding; GHR is ubiquitin |
| Developmental Stage | Expression is low at birth. Increases to adult levels after 5 weeks. |
| Similarity | NA |
| Post Translational Modification | On GH binding; phosphorylated on tyrosine residues in the cytoplasmic domain by JAK2. Phosphorylation on either (or all of) Tyr-534; Tyr-566 and/or Tyr-627 is required for STAT5 activation. Phosphorylation on Tyr-333 would seem necessary for JAK2 activation. |
| Function | Receptor for pituitary gland growth hormone involved in regulating postnatal body growth. On ligand binding; couples to; and activates the JAK2/STAT5 pathway.; The soluble form (GHBP) acts as a reservoir of growth hormone in plasma and may be a modulator/inhibitor of GH signaling. |
