Type of G protein-coupled receptor The lysophospholipid receptor (LPL-R) group are members of the G protein-coupled receptor family of integral membrane proteins that are important for lipid signaling.[1] In humans, there are eight LPL receptors, each encoded by a separate gene. These LPL receptor genes are also sometimes referred to as "Edg" (an acronym for endothelial differentiation gene). ## Contents * 1 Ligands * 2 Origin of name * 3 Function * 4 Group members * 5 See also * 6 References * 7 External links ## Ligands[edit] The ligands for LPL-R group are the lysophospholipid extracellular signaling molecules, lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) and sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P). ## Origin of name[edit] The term lysophospholipid (LPL) refers to any phospholipid that is missing one of its two O-acyl chains. Thus, LPLs have a free alcohol in either the sn-1 or the sn-2 position. The prefix 'lyso-' comes from the fact that lysophospholipids were originally found to be hemolytic, however it is now used to refer generally to phospholipids missing an acyl chain. LPLs are usually the result of phospholipase A-type enzymatic activity on regular phospholipids such as phosphatidylcholine or phosphatidic acid, although they can also be generated by the acylation of glycerophospholipids or the phosphorylation of monoacylglycerols. Some LPLs serve important signaling functions such as lysophosphatidic acid. ## Function[edit] LPL receptor ligands bind to and activate their cognate receptors located in the cell membrane. Depending on which ligand, receptor, and cell type is involved, the activated receptor can have a range of effects on the cell. These include primary effects of inhibition of adenylyl cyclase and release of calcium from the endoplasmic reticulum, as well as secondary effects of preventing apoptosis and increasing cell proliferation.[2] ## Group members[edit] The following is a list of the eleven known human LPL receptors:[1][3][4] Gene Symbol | IUPHAR Symbol | Gene / Protein Name | Agonist Ligand | Synonyms | | | | LPAR1 | 272 | lysophosphatidic acid receptor 1 | LPA | EDG2 LPAR2 | 273 | lysophosphatidic acid receptor 2 | " | EDG4 LPAR3 | 274 | lysophosphatidic acid receptor 3 | " | EDG7 LPAR4 | LPA4 | lysophosphatidic acid receptor 4 | " | GPR23 LPAR5 | LPA5 | lysophosphatidic acid receptor 5 | " | GPR92 LPAR6 | LPA6 | lysophosphatidic acid receptor 6 | " | P2RY5 S1PR1 | 275 | sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 1 | S1P | EDG1 S1PR2 | 276 | sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 2 | " | EDG5 S1PR3 | 277 | sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 3 | " | EDG3 S1PR4 | 278 | sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 4 | " | EDG6 S1PR5 | 279 | sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 5 | " | EDG8 ## See also[edit] * Lipid signaling * Gintonin ## References[edit] 1. ^ a b Chun J, Goetzl EJ, Hla T, Igarashi Y, Lynch KR, Moolenaar W, Pyne S, Tigyi G (2002).
