Description

S1PR1 encodes a G protein-coupled receptor for sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), a bioactive lysophospholipid. This receptor is essential for lymphocyte egress from lymphoid organs, vascular endothelial barrier integrity, and cardiac development. It is the primary target of the immunomodulatory drug fingolimod (FTY720) used in multiple sclerosis.

Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Mutations impairing S1P binding or receptor trafficking, leading to defective lymphocyte egress.

Gain of Function (GOF)

Not well documented; constitutive activation may promote aberrant angiogenesis.

Dominant Negative (DN)

Not reported for S1PR1.

Gene Ontology (GO)

• G protein-coupled receptor activity • sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor activity

Protein Summary

S1PR1 is a 382-amino acid integral membrane protein with seven transmembrane domains. It couples primarily to Gi/o proteins, activating downstream pathways including PI3K/Akt and MAPK. Upon S1P binding, it regulates cytoskeletal rearrangement, cell migration, and barrier function. It is highly expressed on lymphocytes and endothelial cells.
