Substance-P receptor

UniProt P25103 Organism Homo sapiens Gene NK1R, TAC1R, TACR1

Also known as: NK1R, TAC1R, TACR1

Function

Receptor for the tachykinin substance P, also able to bind and respond to tachynins neurokinin A/substance K and neurokinin B/neuromedin-K. The rank order of affinity of this receptor to tachykinins is: substance P > neurokinin A/substance K > neurokinin B/neuromedin-K. Substance P binding to its receptor triggers G protein-coupled receptor signaling via activation of phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis by phospholipase C. Substance P binding also triggers signaling via activation of adenylate cyclase activity which results in increased intracellular levels of cyclic AMP (cAMP) (By similarity).
