General annotation (Comments)
| Function | Receptor for GABA. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G-proteins that inhibit adenylyl cyclase activity, stimulates phospholipase A2, activates potassium channels, inactivates voltage-dependent calcium-channels and modulates inositol phospholipids hydrolysis. Plays a critical role in the fine-tuning of inhibitory synaptic transmission. Pre-synaptic GABA-B-R inhibit neurotransmitter release by down-regulating high-voltage activated calcium channels, whereas postsynaptic GABA-B-R decrease neuronal excitability by activating a prominent inwardly rectifying potassium (Kir) conductance that underlies the late inhibitory postsynaptic potentials. Not only implicated in synaptic inhibition but also in hippocampal long-term potentiation, slow wave sleep, muscle relaxation and antinociception. Activated by (-)-baclofen, cgp27492 and blocked by phaclofen. Isoform 1E function may be to regulate the availability of functional GABA-B-R1A/GABA-B-R2 heterodimers by competing for GABA-B-R2 dimerization. This could explain the observation that certain small molecule ligands exhibit differential affinity for central versus peripheral sites. |
| Cofactor | Calcium. Required for high affinity binding to GABA. |
| Subunit structure | Heterodimer of GABA-B-R1 and GABA-B-R2. Neither of which is effective on its own and homodimeric assembly does not seem to happen. Isoform 1E (without C-terminal intracellular domain) is unable to dimerize via a coiled-coil interaction with GABA-B-R2. Interacts with the leucine zipper of the C-terminal bZIP domain of ATF4 via its C-terminal region. Interacts with JAKMIP1. Ref.14 Ref.15 Ref.16 |
| Subcellular location | Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cell junction › synapse › postsynaptic cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note: Colocalizes with ATF4 in hippocampal neuron dendritic membranes By similarity. Moreover coexpression of GABA-B-R1 and GABA-B-R2 appears to be a prerequisite for maturation and transport of GABA-B-R1 to the plasma membrane. |
| Tissue specificity | Highly expressed in brain and weakly in heart, small intestine and uterus. Isoform 1A is mostly expressed in granular cell and molecular layer. Isoform 1B is mostly expressed in Purkinje cells. Isoform 1E is predominantly expressed in peripheral tissues as kidney, lung, trachea, colon, small intestine, stomach, bone marrow, thymus and mammary gland. |
| Domain | Alpha-helical parts of the C-terminal intracellular region mediate heterodimeric interaction with GABA-B receptor 2. The linker region between the transmembrane domain 3 (TM3) and the transmembrane domain 4 (TM4) probably play a role in the specificity for G-protein coupling. |
| Sequence similarities | Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 3 family. GABA-B receptor subfamily. Contains 2 Sushi (CCP/SCR) domains. |

Alternative products
| This entry describes 5 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select] Note: Isoforms corresponding to the full receptor are essentially found in the central nervous system (CNS). | ||||||
| Isoform 1A (identifier: Q9UBS5-1) This isoform has been chosen as the 'canonical' sequence. All positional information in this entry refers to it. This is also the sequence that appears in the downloadable versions of the entry. | ||||||
| Isoform 1B (identifier: Q9UBS5-2) The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows: 1-164: MLLLLLLAPL...PHCQVNRTPH → MGPGAPFARV...PHSRVPPHPS | ||||||
| Isoform 1C (identifier: Q9UBS5-3) The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows: 98-159: Missing. | ||||||
| Isoform 1D (identifier: Q9UBS5-4) The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows: 905-961: KEERVSELRH...DGSRVHLLYK → SGGLPRGPPEPPDRLSCDGSRVHLLYK | ||||||
| Isoform 1E (identifier: Q9UBS5-5) Also known as: Truncated; The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows: 570-961: GGSPPADQTL...DGSRVHLLYK → VISRTHSPT | ||||||
| Note: Major isoform in almost all peripheral tissues, although containing a premature stop codon in the mRNA and thus being a potential target for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. May act as an antagonist of GABA-B receptors, being able to disrupt the normal association between isoform 1A and GABA-B-R2. |
