Microdomain localization and receptor coupling of mammalian AC isoforms

AC Isoform Microdomain Localization GPCR Coupling Systems Studied Notes
AC1 Lipid raft β2AR Vascular smooth muscle cells AC1 overexpression used to demonstrate GPCR coupling
AC2 Nonraft EP2/4R Airway smooth muscle cells AC2 overexpression used to demonstrate GPCR coupling
AC3 Lipid raft β2AR, D1R glucagon HEK-293 Glucagon receptors were exogenously expressed
AC4 Nonraft Unknown Unknown
AC5 Lipid raft β1AR, β2AR, A2AR Cardiac myocytes, hepatocytes D5R couple to AC5 in nonrafts of renal tubule cells
AC6 Lipid raft β1AR, β2AR, IPR, D1, A2AR, PAC1 HEK-293, cardiac myocytes, airway and GI smooth muscle cells, vascular smooth muscle cells, cardiac fibroblasts, lung fibroblasts, hepatocytes, platelets AC6 overexpression, knockdown, and antibody inactivation have been used to determine GPCR-AC6 coupling
AC7 Nonraft D1R-EP1R HEK-293 Regulation of AC7 by D1R is via Gβγ and requires EP1R
AC8 Lipid raft None HEK-293, pancreatic cells, hippocampal neurons Stimulated by store-operated and L-type calcium channels
AC9 Nonraft Unknown Unknown
