PROTEIN

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES

STRUCTURE

motifs/domains	seven transmembrane domains
	C terminus of GPBAR1 lacks any known sorting motif such that other factors must determine its trafficking, and the secondary structure of the GPBAR1 membrane-proximal C terminus is the determining factor for plasma membrane localization and responsiveness towards extracellular ligands

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	plasma membrane
	intracellular
	intracellular,cytoplasm
text	internalized into the cytoplasm in response to bile acids
	highly expressed in cholangiocytes , and is localized in the primary cilium of human cholangiocytes

basic FUNCTION	responsive activity to bile acids regulates proglucagon gene expression in enteroendocrine cells
	acting as a receptor for bile acid
	bile acid-binding induces its internalization, activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase and intracellular cAMP production
	involved in the suppression of macrophage functions by bile acids
	acting as a rhodopsin-like receptor
	may play a protective role in obstructive cholestasis preventing excessive cytokine production thereby reducing liver injury
	stimulates gallbladder filling
	significant immune modulating function to GPBAR1 activation in the prevention of atherosclerosis
	expressed in the pancreatic beta cells, regulates likely insulin secretion
	bile salts promote glucose-mediated insulin release via GPBAR1
	GPBAR1 agonism induces NO production via AKT1 activation and intracellular Ca(2+) increase in vascular endothelial cells, and this function inhibits monocyte adhesion in response to inflammatory stimuli
	mediates likely the BA-induced pro-inflammatory cytokine production in Kupffer cells through JNK-dependent pathway
	appears to be crucial for protecting the regenerating liver from bile acid (BA) overload
	GPBAR1 signaling reduces neuroinflammation during hepatic encephalopathy
	is an important mediator of bile acid (BA)-induced cholangiocyte proliferation, and protects cholangiocytes from death receptor-mediated apoptosis
	activation of GPBAR1 in pancreatic beta cells by bile acids induces insulin secretion
	because GPBAR1 promotes energy expenditure and improves glucose homeostasis, it is recognized as a key target in treating metabolic diseases
	is a suppressor of kidney cancer cell proliferation and migration
	bile acids have emerged as important for renal pathophysiology by activating NR1H4 and GPBAR1 and transcription factors relevant for lipid, cholesterol and carbohydrate metabolism, as well as genes involved in inflammation and renal fibrosis (
	bile acid activated receptor for secondary bile acids
	is a druggable target to promote beiging with potential applications in the management of metabolic disorders

REGULATION

Other	activation of GPBAR1 increases insulin secretion under both low and high ambient glucose levels (
	GPBAR1 activation induces mitochondrial biogenesis and prevents renal oxidative stress and lipid accumulation, establishing a role for TGR5 in inhibiting kidney disease in obesity and diabetes mellitus
