background | Pegvisomant, a growth hormone receptor (GHR) antagonist, is a well-known drug that was designed to treat acromegaly. However, recent studies have indicated that the GHR is a "moonlighting" protein that may exhibit dual functions based on its localization in the plasma membrane and nucleus. |
molecular weight | The protein has a predicted MW of 28.8 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 45-60 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result. |

Pegvisomant, a growth hormone receptor (GHR) antagonist, is a well-known drug that was designed to treat acromegaly. However, recent studies have indicated that the GHR is a "moonlighting" protein that may exhibit dual functions based on its localization in the plasma membrane and nucleus. |
Protein names Growth hormone receptor (GH receptor) (Somatotropin receptor) [Cleaved into: Growth hormone-binding protein (GH-binding protein) (GHBP) (Serum-binding protein)] |
Gene names GHR,GHR |
Protein family Type I cytokine receptor family, Type 1 subfamily |
Mass 9606Da |
Function Receptor for pituitary gland growth hormone involved in regulating postnatal body growth. On ligand binding, couples to the JAK2/STAT5 pathway (By similarity).; The soluble form (GHBP) acts as a reservoir of growth hormone in plasma and may be a modulator/inhibitor of GH signaling.; Isoform 2 up-regulates the production of GHBP and acts as a negative inhibitor of GH signaling. |
Catalytic activity #N/A |
Subellular location Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Note=On growth hormone binding, GHR is ubiquitinated, internalized, down-regulated and transported into a degradative or non-degradative pathway.; [Isoform 2]: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Note=Remains fixed to the cell membrane and is not internalized.; [Growth hormone-binding protein]: Secreted. Note=Complexed to a substantial fraction of circulating GH. |
Tissues Expressed in various tissues with high expression in liver and skeletal muscle. Isoform 4 is predominantly expressed in kidney, bladder, adrenal gland and brain stem. Isoform 1 expression in placenta is predominant in chorion and decidua. Isoform 4 is highly expressed in placental villi. Isoform 2 is expressed in lung, stomach and muscle. Low levels in liver. |
Structure On growth hormone (GH) binding, forms homodimers and binds JAK2 via a box 1-containing domain. Binding to SOCS3 inhibits JAK2 activation, binding to CIS and SOCS2 inhibits STAT5 activation. Interacts with ADAM17. |
Post-translational modification The soluble form (GHBP) is produced by phorbol ester-promoted proteolytic cleavage at the cell surface (shedding) by ADAM17/TACE. Shedding is inhibited by growth hormone (GH) binding to the receptor probably due to a conformational change in GHR rendering the receptor inaccessible to ADAM17 (By similarity).; On GH binding, phosphorylated on tyrosine residues in the cytoplasmic domain by JAK2.; On ligand binding, ubiquitinated on lysine residues in the cytoplasmic domain. This ubiquitination is not sufficient for GHR internalization (By similarity). |
