Post Translational Modifications
Function
G protein-coupled receptor for peptide hormones apelin (APLN) and apelin receptor early endogenous ligand (APELA), that plays a role in the regulation of normal cardiovascular function and fluid homeostasis. When acting as apelin receptor, activates both G(i) protein pathway that inhibits adenylate cyclase activity, and the beta-arrestin pathway leading to internalization of the receptor. APLNR/APJ receptor is also activated by mechanical strech in a G-protein-independent fashion to induce beta-arrestin signaling leading to cardiac hypertrophy. However, the presence of apelin ligand blunts cardiac hypertrophic induction from APLNR/APJ on response to pathological stimuli. Plays a key role in early development such as gastrulation, blood vessels formation and heart morphogenesis by acting as a receptor for APELA hormone. May promote angioblast migration toward the embryonic midline, i.e. the position of the future vessel formation, during vasculogenesis. Promotes sinus venosus (SV)-derived endothelial cells migration into the developing heart to promote coronary blood vessel development. Also plays a role in various processes in adults such as regulation of blood vessel formation, blood pressure and heart contractility and protection from cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure.
