Query author contributions in Reactome

Reactome depends on collaboration between our curation team and outside experts to assemble and peer-review its pathway modules. The integration of ORCID within Reactome enables us to meet a key challenge with authoring, curating and reviewing biological information by incentivizing and crediting the external experts that contribute their expertise and time to the Reactome curation process. More information is available at ORCID and Reactome.

If you have an ORCID ID that is not listed on this page, please forward this information to us and we will update your Reactome pathway records.

commentFUNCTION G-protein coupled receptor for 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin), a biogenic hormone that functions as a neurotransmitter, a hormone and a mitogen (PubMed:10821780, PubMed:16102731, PubMed:35714614, PubMed:9603189). Ligand binding causes a conformation change that triggers signaling via guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) and modulates the activity of downstream effectors (PubMed:16102731, PubMed:35714614). HTR4 is coupled to G(s) G alpha proteins and mediates activation of adenylate cyclase activity (PubMed:16102731, PubMed:35714614).SUBUNIT Interacts (via C-terminus 330-346 AA) with GRK5; this interaction is promoted by 5-HT (serotonin).SUBUNIT Interacts with MAGI2, MPP3, NHERF1 and SNX27 isoforms 1 and 2 (By similarity). Forms a complex including NHERF1 and EZR (By similarity).SUBUNIT Interacts with PATJ, NOS1 and SEC23A.INTERACTION Interaction with SNX27 mediates recruitment to early endosomes, while interaction with NHERF1 and EZR might target the protein to specialized subcellular regions, such as microvilli.ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS Additional isoforms seem to exist.TISSUE SPECIFICITY Expressed in ileum, brain, and atrium, but not in the ventricle.TISSUE SPECIFICITY Mainly expressed in atria and cardiac ventricle.TISSUE SPECIFICITY Expressed in all cardiovascular tissues analyzed.DOMAIN Specificity for G(s) G alpha proteins is determined by the length of transmembrane regions 5 and 6 (TM5 and TM6).SIMILARITY Belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family.
