9.A.14.1.21
Thirotropin receptor, isoform 1 precursor, of 764 aas with 7 TMSs in the C-terminal half of the protein.  Also called the TSH receptor (TSHR). It is the receptor for the thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) or thyrotropin (Costagliola et al. 2002). It also acts as a receptor for the heterodimeric glycoprotein hormone (GPHA2:GPHB5) or thyrostimulin (Nakabayashi et al. 2002). The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylate cyclase (Costagliola et al. 2002). There are  functional water channels within the TSH receptor that are activated 2-fold by TSH binding (Latif et al. 2023). TSHR-mediated disease risk can be modified by variants at the TSHR locus both inside and outside the coding region, and by altered TSHR-signaling and dietary iodine, supporting the need for personalized treatment strategies (Makkonen et al. 2024).
