Supplementary information

TAAR1 also known as Trace Amine-Associated Receptor 1 is a G-protein-coupled receptor primarily involved in the modulation of monoaminergic systems in the brain. It has an approximate molecular mass of 37 kDa. This receptor is expressed largely in the central nervous system particularly in regions such as the prefrontal cortex amygdala and hippocampus but also found in some peripheral tissues like the pancreas. TAAR1 is responsive to trace amines which are endogenous compounds structurally related to monoamine neurotransmitters.
Biological function summary

TAAR1 influences monoaminergic activity. It plays a critical role in regulating the release and reuptake of neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin. It does not form part of a larger receptor complex but instead exerts its influence by interacting with proteins associated with neurotransmitter release management. TAAR1's activation produces various responses depending on the cell type and neurological context impacting mood and cognition processes.

Pathways

TAAR1 signaling integrates into dopaminergic and serotonergic pathways. It modulates the activity of these pathways by altering the concentration of neurotransmitters through interacting with dopaminergic D2 receptors and serotonin transporters. This receptor operates within these pathways by providing feedback control influencing neurotransmitter dynamics critically involved in mood regulation and behavior expression.

TAAR1 connects closely to schizophrenia and depression. Studies associate its functional activity with altered monoamine levels seen in these conditions. In schizophrenia TAAR1 has connections with dopamine dysregulation with proteins such as the D2 receptor heavily implicated in pathophysiology. In depression its modulation of serotonin transporter function may impact therapeutic outcomes. Understanding TAAR1's role in these disorders helps guide the development of novel targeted therapies.

Target data

Intracellular G-protein coupled receptor for trace amines, which recognizes endogenous amine-containing metabolites such as beta-phenylethylamine (beta-PEA), 3-iodothyronamine (T1AM), isoamylamine (IAA), cadaverine (CAD), cyclohexylamine (CHA), p-tyramine (p-TYR), trimethylamine (TMA), octopamine and tryptamine (PubMed : 11459929, PubMed : 11723224, PubMed : 15718104, PubMed : 31399635, PubMed : 36100653, PubMed : 37935376, PubMed : 37935377, PubMed : 37963465, PubMed : 38168118). Also functions as a receptor for various drugs and psychoactive substances, such as amphetamine and methamphetamine (PubMed : 31399635, PubMed : 37935376, PubMed : 37935377). Unresponsive to classical biogenic amines, such as epinephrine and histamine and only partially activated by dopamine and serotonin (PubMed : 11459929, PubMed : 11723224). Expressed in both the central and peripheral nervous system : TAAR1 activation regulates the activity of several neurotransmitter signaling pathways by (1) decreasing the basal firing rates of the neurons involved and by (2) lowering the sensitivity of receptors to neurotransmitters (PubMed : 37935376, PubMed : 37935377, PubMed : 37963465, PubMed : 38168118). Ligand binding causes a conformation change that triggers signaling via guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) and modulates the activity of downstream effectors (PubMed : 31399635, PubMed : 37935376, PubMed : 37963465). TAAR1 is coupled with different G(i)/G(o)-, G(s)- or G(q)/G(11) classes of G alpha proteins depending on the ligand (PubMed : 31399635, PubMed : 37935376, PubMed : 37963465). CAD-binding is coupled to G(i)/G(o) G alpha proteins and mediates inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity (PubMed : 37935376, PubMed : 37963465). T1AM- or beta-PEA-binding is coupled to G(s) G alpha proteins and mediates activation of adenylate cyclase activity (PubMed : 37935376, PubMed : 37963465). CHA- or IAA-binding is coupled to G(q)/G(11) G alpha proteins and activates phospholipase C-beta, releasing diacylglycerol (DAG) and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) second messengers (PubMed : 37935376, PubMed : 37963465). TMA-binding is coupled with all three G(i)/G(o)-, G(s)- or G(q)/G(11) G alpha protein subtypes (PubMed : 37935376, PubMed : 37963465). Amphetamine-binding is coupled with G(s)- or G(12)/G(13) G alpha protein subtypes (PubMed : 31399635).
