Biological function summary
Somatostatin receptor 2 mediates the inhibitory effects of somatostatin on cell growth and the release of other hormones. It functions as part of the receptor complex modulating intracellular signaling pathways. SSTR2 often interacts closely with other molecules like G proteins to inhibit adenylyl cyclase reducing cyclic AMP (cAMP) levels and influencing diverse cellular responses. The receptor's ability to influence such processes emphasizes its role in maintaining cellular and systemic homeostasis.
Pathways
Somatostatin receptor 2 plays an important role in the inhibitory signaling pathways related to growth hormone regulation and neurotransmitter release. SSTR2 actively participates in the somatostatin signaling pathway intimately interacting with proteins such as adenylate cyclase and phospholipase C. Another important pathway includes the regulation of the MAPK pathway serving to modulate cell proliferation and survival reiterating its regulatory function within endocrine signaling and cellular communication.

General info
Function
Receptor for somatostatin-14 and -28. This receptor is coupled via pertussis toxin sensitive G proteins to inhibition of adenylyl cyclase. In addition it stimulates phosphotyrosine phosphatase and PLC via pertussis toxin insensitive as well as sensitive G proteins. Inhibits calcium entry by suppressing voltage-dependent calcium channels. Acts as the functionally dominant somatostatin receptor in pancreatic alpha- and beta-cells where it mediates the inhibitory effect of somatostatin-14 on hormone secretion. Inhibits cell growth through enhancement of MAPK1 and MAPK2 phosphorylation and subsequent up-regulation of CDKN1B. Stimulates neuronal migration and axon outgrowth and may participate in neuron development and maturation during brain development. Mediates negative regulation of insulin receptor signaling through PTPN6. Inactivates SSTR3 receptor function following heterodimerization.
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
Post-translational modifications
Phosphorylated on serine and threonine residues in response to agonist stimulation, leading to receptor desensitization and rapid internalization. Phosphorylated to a greater extent on serine than threonine residues. Threonine phosphorylation is required for arrestin binding and receptor endocytosis but is not necessary for desensitization (By similarity).
