Supplementary information

The calcium-sensing receptor often referred to as CaSR is a critical G-protein coupled receptor involved in calcium ion homeostasis. Also known as CASR this receptor detects changes in extracellular calcium concentration and modulates signaling pathways accordingly. The CaSR protein has a molecular weight of approximately 120 kDa. It is mainly expressed in the parathyroid gland kidney and several other tissues playing a significant role in regulating serum calcium levels.
Biological function summary

The calcium-sensing receptor modulates parathyroid hormone secretion and renal calcium excretion in response to calcium fluctuations. Although not typically part of a larger protein complex it interacts with several other proteins to perform its functions efficiently. CaSR ensures the stability of calcium concentration which is essential for bone health muscle contraction and nerve function.

Pathways

Several other proteins work alongside the calcium-sensing receptor in the calcium signaling and parathyroid hormone secretion pathways. In particular CaSR influences the MAPK pathway which impacts cell growth and differentiation. Phosphate transporters and calbindins are related to CaSR within these pathways indicating its broad scope in calcium metabolism.

The calcium-sensing receptor is closely associated with conditions like hypercalcemia and autosomal dominant hypocalcemia. CaSR mutations can result in dysfunctional calcium regulation impacting parathyroid hormone levels. The relationship between CaSR and parathyroid hormone-related peptide highlights its significance in maintaining calcium balance and preventing skeletal and neurological complications.

Target data

G-protein-coupled receptor that senses changes in the extracellular concentration of calcium ions and plays a key role in maintaining calcium homeostasis (PubMed : 17555508, PubMed : 19789209, PubMed : 21566075, PubMed : 22114145, PubMed : 22789683, PubMed : 23966241, PubMed : 25104082, PubMed : 25292184, PubMed : 25766501, PubMed : 26386835, PubMed : 7759551, PubMed : 8636323, PubMed : 8702647, PubMed : 8878438). Senses fluctuations in the circulating calcium concentration and modulates the production of parathyroid hormone (PTH) in parathyroid glands (By similarity). The activity of this receptor is mediated by a G-protein that activates a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system (PubMed : 7759551). The G-protein-coupled receptor activity is activated by a co-agonist mechanism : aromatic amino acids, such as Trp or Phe, act concertedly with divalent cations, such as calcium or magnesium, to achieve full receptor activation (PubMed : 27386547, PubMed : 27434672).
