PROTEIN
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
STRUCTURE
motifs/domains
  • seven transmembrane segments (7TM) receptor
  • a NPXXY sequence at the end of helix 7 and most likely the intracellular helix 8, linked at the N terminus to the NPXXY sequence by a four-amino acid spacer and anchored at its C terminus through palmitoylated cysteines to the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane , that can serve as an allosteric binding site for small molecule compounds

    basic FUNCTION
  • playing a potentially protective role in kidney against end stage renal disease (ESRD)
  • associating with G proteins that activate a phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger system
  • plays an important role in protecting neurons from damage induced by hypoxia/reoxygenation and this effect may function through the ERK1/2 pathway
  • regulates the secretion and biosynthesis of EDN1 through bradykinin in tumor cells, especially melanoma cells
  • BDKRB1, BDKRB2 play an essential role in inflammatory process and cardiovascular homeostasis
  • inhibition of endocytosis, which stabilized BDKRB1 on the cell surface, inhibited BDKRB1 signaling, whereas BDKRB2 signaling was not perturbed
  • plays a critical role in inflammatory responses mediated by activation of the kallikrein-kinin system
  • bradykinin exerts its vascular actions via two types of receptors, the non-constitutively expressed bradykinin receptor type 1 (BDKRB1) and the constitutive type 2 receptor (BDKRB2)

    protein
  • BDKRB2, FGF7 and HIST2H2BE are direct IRX1 targets
  • interacts with integrin alpha5beta1 to transactivate epidermal growth factor receptor in kidney cells
  • BDKRB1 function can be downregulated by BDKRB2 co-endocytosis and signaling
