Function: Receptor for thyrothropin. Plays a central role in controlling thyroid cell metabolism. The activity of this receptor is mediated by G proteins which activate adenylate cyclase. Also acts as a receptor for thyrostimulin (GPA2+GPB5).
Disease:
Cellular location: Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
Tissue specificity: Expressed in the thyroid.

Genetic variants

The Asp727Glu polymorphism is associated with Graves disease in a Russian population. The Glu727 allele and the heterozygous Asp727Glu genotype are related to higher risk of the disease. The Asp727Glu polymorphism significantly ameliorates G(s)alpha protein activation in the presence of the gain-of- function mutation Ala593Asn although it is functionally inert in the context of the wild-type TSHR.
