Abstract
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are a vastfamily of membrane-traversing proteins, essential to the ability ofeukaryotic life to detect, and mount an intracellular response to, a diverse range of extracellular stimuli. GPCRshave evolved with archetypal features including an extracellular N-terminus and intracellular C-terminus thatflank a transmembrane structure of seven sequential helices joined by intracellular and extracellular loops.These structural domains contribute to the ability of a GPCR to be correctly synthesised and inserted into thecell membrane, to interact with its cognate ligand(s) and to couple with signal-transducing heterotrimeric G pro-teins, allowing the activated receptor to selectively modulate a number of signalling cascades. Whilst well knownfor its importance in receptor translation and trafficking, the GPCR N-terminus is underexplored as a participantin receptor signalling. This review aims to discuss and integrate recent advances in knowledge of the vital roles ofthe GPCR N-terminus in receptor signalling
