ncbi summary :
This gene encodes a member of the type I cytokine receptor family, which is a transmembrane receptor for growth hormone. Binding of growth hormone to the receptor leads to receptor dimerization and the activation of an intra- and intercellular signal transduction pathway leading to growth. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Laron syndrome, also known as the growth hormone insensitivity syndrome (GHIS), a disorder characterized by short stature. In humans and rabbits, but not rodents, growth hormone binding protein (GHBP) is generated by proteolytic cleavage of the extracellular ligand-binding domain from the mature growth hormone receptor protein. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Jun 2011]
uniprot summary :
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. Subunit structure: On growth hormone (GH) binding, forms homodimers and binds JAK2 via a box 1-containing domain . By similarity. Binding to SOCS3 inhibits JAK2 activation, binding to CIS and SOCS2 inhibits STAT5 activation . By similarity. Interacts with ADAM17 . By similarity. Subcellular location: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane 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: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Note: Remains fixed to the cell membrane and is not internalized.Growth hormone-binding protein: Secreted. Note: Complexed to a substantial fraction of circulating GH . By similarity. Tissue specificity: Expressed in various tissues with high expression in liver and skeletal muscle. Isoform 4 is predominantly expressed in kidney, bladder, adrenal gland and brain stem. Isoform 1 expression in placenta is predominant in chorion and decidua. Isoform 4 is highly expressed in placental villi. Isoform 2 is expressed in lung, stomach and muscle. Low levels in liver. Domain: The WSXWS motif appears to be necessary for proper protein folding and thereby efficient intracellular transport and cell-surface receptor binding.The box 1 motif is required for JAK interaction and/or activation.The extracellular domain is the ligand-binding domain representing the growth hormone-binding protein (GHBP).The ubiquitination-dependent endocytosis motif (UbE) is required for recruitment of the ubiquitin conjugation system on to the receptor and for its internalization. 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. Polymorphism: Genetic variation in GHR may act as phenotype modifier in familial hypercholesterolemia [. MIM:143890] patients carrying a mutation in the LDLR gene. Involvement in disease: Laron syndrome (LARS) [MIM:262500]: A severe form of growth hormone insensitivity characterized by growth impairment, short stature, dysfunctional growth hormone receptor, and failure to generate insulin-like growth factor I in response to growth hormone.Note: The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Ref.14 Ref.15 Ref.16 Ref.17 Ref.18 Ref.20 Ref.21 Ref.23 Ref.26 Ref.28Short stature, idiopathic, autosomal (ISSA) [MIM:604271]: A condition defined by a standing height more than 2 standard deviations below the mean (or below the 2.5 percentile) for sex and chronological age, compared with a well-nourished, genetically relevant population, in the absence of specific causative disorders.Note: The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Ref.19. Sequence similarities: Belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family. Type 1 subfamily.Contains 1 fibronectin type-III domain.
