Abstract

Significance: Adhesion G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) regulate tissue development and cancer progression. Intact adhesion GPCRs are unique two-protomer receptors that undergo biosynthetic self-proteolyzation at a conserved site between the extracellular domain and the seven transmembrane (7TM) domain. We demonstrate the activation mechanism of adhesion GPCRs. The 7TM domain N-terminal stalk lies encrypted within the noncovalently bound extracellular domain. When the extracellular domain is dissociated, perhaps naturally by ligand action, the 7TM stalk is revealed. We demonstrate that the stalk acts as a tethered agonist of the 7TM to facilitate direct activation of heterotrimeric G proteins. Synthetic peptides comprising adhesion GPCR 7TM domain stalks are sufficient receptor agonists, raising the possibility for the development of adhesion GPCR synthetic peptide modulators.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
