Function

Beta-adrenergic receptors mediate the catecholamine-induced activation of adenylate cyclase through the action of G proteins. The beta-2-adrenergic receptor binds epinephrine with an approximately 30-fold greater affinity than it does norepinephrine.

General info

Function

Beta-adrenergic receptors mediate the catecholamine-induced activation of adenylate cyclase through the action of G proteins. The beta-2-adrenergic receptor binds epinephrine with an approximately 30-fold greater affinity than it does norepinephrine.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family. Adrenergic receptor subfamily. ADRB2 sub-subfamily.

Post-translational modifications

Palmitoylated (PubMed:11146000, PubMed:17962520, PubMed:18547522, PubMed:2540197, PubMed:27481942). Mainly palmitoylated at Cys-341 (PubMed:17962520, PubMed:18547522, PubMed:2540197). Palmitoylation may reduce accessibility of phosphorylation sites by anchoring the receptor to the plasma membrane. Agonist stimulation promotes depalmitoylation and further allows Ser-345 and Ser-346 phosphorylation (PubMed:11146000). Also undergoes transient, ligand-induced palmitoylation at Cys-265 probably by ZDHHC9, ZDHHC14 and ZDHHC18 within the Golgi (PubMed:27481942). Palmitoylation at Cys-265 requires phosphorylation by PKA and receptor internalization and stabilizes the receptor (PubMed:27481942). Could be depalmitoylated by LYPLA1 at the plasma membrane (PubMed:27481942).

Activity summary

The beta 2 adrenergic receptor (also known as beta-2 adrenergic receptor B2 adrenergic receptor beta-2 receptor) is a transmembrane protein that acts as a receptor for catecholamines like adrenaline and noradrenaline. It belongs to the G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) superfamily and is involved in signal transduction by activating adenylate cyclase through the Gs protein. The mass of the beta 2 adrenergic receptor is approximately 46 kDa. This receptor is expressed in various tissues including the lungs skeletal muscle liver and smooth muscle.

Biological function summary

The beta 2 adrenergic receptor is important for mediating the physiological responses to adrenaline and noradrenaline. It plays a significant role in bronchodilation and vasodilation by relaxing airway and vascular smooth muscles. While it does not form a part of any complex its signaling initiates a cascade of intracellular events leading to changes in cellular function. This receptor ensures tissue responsiveness to catecholamines influencing cardiac output metabolic rate and smooth muscle relaxation.

Pathways

This receptor is an important component of the adrenergic signaling pathway and is closely associated with the cAMP-dependent signaling pathway. The activation of the beta 2 adrenergic receptor increases intracellular cAMP levels resulting in the activation of protein kinase A (PKA) and subsequent phosphorylation of various target proteins. The receptor interacts with other proteins within these pathways such as adenylate cyclase and PKA ensuring the propagation of downstream signaling that modulates cellular responses.

Associated diseases and disorders

The beta 2 adrenergic receptor has a notable connection to asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Its role in bronchodilation makes it a therapeutic target for managing these respiratory conditions. Alterations in the function or expression of the beta 2 adrenergic receptor can exacerbate these diseases. Additionally these disorders demonstrate a link with the muscarinic acetylcholine receptors which also affect airway tone regulation. Understanding the interactions between these receptors is essential for developing therapeutic strategies for respiratory diseases.
