We have cloned and expressed a novel human G-protein-coupled receptor closely related to the human P2Y(12) receptor. It corresponds to the orphan receptor called GPR86. GPR86 proved to be a G(i)-coupled receptor displaying a high affinity for ADP, similar to the P2Y(12) receptor and can therefore be tentatively called P2Y(13). In 1321N1 cells, the P2Y(13) receptor coupled to the phosphoinositide pathway only when coexpressed with Galpha(16). Inositol trisphosphate formation was stimulated equipotently by nanomolar concentrations of ADP and 2MeSADP, whereas 2MeSATP and ATP were inactive. In CHO-K1 cells expressing the P2Y(13) receptor, ADP and 2MeSADP had a biphasic effect on the forskolin-stimulated accumulation of cAMP: inhibition at nanomolar concentrations and potentiation at micromolar levels. In the same cells, ADP and 2MeSADP also stimulated the phosphorylation of Erk1 and Erk2, in a pertussis toxin-sensitive way. The tissue distribution of P2Y(13) was investigated by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction, and the predominant signals were obtained in spleen and brain. Although these can be discriminated by tissue distribution and some pharmacological features, the P2Y(12) and P2Y(13) receptors form a subgroup of related P2Y subtypes that is structurally different from the other P2Y subtypes but share coupling to G(i) and a high affinity for ADP.
Combining with a purine nucleotide and transmitting the signal across the membrane by activating an associated G-protein; promotes the exchange of GDP for GTP on the alpha subunit of a heterotrimeric G-protein complex.

Pathways
According to KEGG, this protein belongs to the following pathway:
Stimulation by ADP in stably transfected CHO cells resulted in inhibition of adenylyl cyclase and the phosphorylation of the MAP kinases MAPK3 and MAPK1 in a pertussis toxin-sensitive way. Inhibition of adenylyl cyclase and phosphorylation of the MAP kinases are transduction mechanisms that involve G(i) proteins.
Receptors which transduce extracellular signals across the cell membrane. At the external side they receive a ligand (a photon in case of opsins), and at the cytosolic side they activate a guanine nucleotide-binding (G) protein. These receptors are hydrophobic proteins that cross the membrane seven times.
A reference proteome is a set of protein sequences derived from a complete proteome which constitutes a defined standard for a particular user community. Reference proteomes are manually defined according to a number of criteria. They cover the proteomes of well- studied model organisms and other proteomes of interest for biomedical and biotechnological research. Reference proteomes have been selected to provide broad coverage of the tree of life, and constitute a representative cross-section of the taxonomic diversity to be found within UniProtKB.
