General Comment |
The predicted 370-amino
acid SREB2 protein contains several features of the GPCR family, including 7 transmembrane domains, potential
N-linked glycosylation sites in the N-terminal extracellular domain, and conserved cysteine residues, which may form a
disulfide bridge, in the first and second extracellular loops. However, SREB2 shares additional characteristics with
SREB1 and SREB3 (300253) that are not also shared with other GPCRs, including identical amino acid substitutions of
residues conserved in other GPCRs, an absence of prolines in the fifth transmembrane domain, and a relatively large
conserved third cytoplasmic loop that has no sequence similarity to the third cytoplasmic loops of other GPCRs. High levels of SREB2
expression were found in brain and testis. This is an orphan receptor.
