Receptor activity modifying proteins (
Background and PurposeAlthough it is established that the receptor activity modifying proteins (RAMPs) can interact with a number ofGPCRs, little is known about the consequences of these interactions. Here the interaction ofRAMPs with the glucagon‐like peptide 1 receptor (GLP‐1 receptor), the human vasoactive intestinal polypeptide/pituitaryAC ...

Receptor Activity-modifying Proteins 2 and 3 Have Distinct Physiological Functions from Embryogenesis to Old Age [PDF]
RAMPs (receptor activity modifying proteins) impart remarkable effects on G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling. First identified through an interaction with the calcitonin receptor-like receptor (CLR), these single transmembrane proteins are now known to modulate the in vitro ligand binding affinity, trafficking, and second messenger pathways of

Adrenomedullin increases the expression of calcitonin-like receptor and receptor activity modifying protein 2 mRNA in human microvascular endothelial cells [PDF]
Adrenomedullin (AM) is a multifunctional peptide hormone, which plays a significant role in vasodilation and angiogenesis, implicating it in hypertension as well as in carcinogenesis. AM exerts its effects via the calcitonin receptor-like receptor (CRLR, now known as CL) complexed with either receptor activity modifying protein (RAMP) 2 or 3.

Cholesterol modulates acetylcholine receptor diffusion by tuning confinement sojourns and nanocluster stability [PDF]
Translational motion of neurotransmitter receptors is key for determining receptor number at the synapse and hence, synaptic efficacy. We combine live-cell STORM superresolution microscopy of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) with single-particle ...

Reassessing the adrenomedullin scavenging function of ACKR3 in lymphatic endothelial cells.
Atypical chemokine receptor 3 (ACKR3) is a scavenger of the chemokines CXCL11 and CXCL12 and of several opioid peptides. Additional evidence indicates that ACKR3 binds two other non-chemokine ligands, namely the peptide hormone adrenomedullin (AM) and ...

The role of ubiquitination and hepatocyte growth factor-regulated tyrosine kinase substrate in the degradation of the adrenomedullin type I receptor [PDF]
Calcitonin receptor-like receptor (CLR) and the receptor activity-modifying protein 2 (RAMP2) comprise a receptor for adrenomedullin (AM). Although it is known that AM induces internalization of CLR•RAMP2, little is known about the molecular mechanisms ...
