Alternative splicing enables G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) genes to greatly increase the number of structurally and functionally distinct receptor isoforms. However, the functional role and relevance of the individual GPCR splice variants in regulating physiological processes are still to be assessed. A naturally occurring alternative splice variant of Bombyx CAPA-PVK receptor, BomCAPA-PVK-R1-Delta 341, has been shown to act as a dominant-negative protein to regulate cell surface expression and function of the canonical CAPA-PVK receptor. Herein, using functional assays, we identify the splice variant Delta 341 as a specific receptor for neuropeptide CAPA-PK, and upon activation, Delta 341 signals to ERK1/2 pathway. Further characterization demonstrates that Delta 341 couples to Gai/o, distinct from the Gaq-coupled canonical CAPA-PVK receptor, triggering ERK1/2 phosphorylation through G beta gamma-PI3K-PKC. signaling cascade. Moreover, our ELISA data show that the ligand-dependent internalization of the splice variant Delta 341 is significantly impaired due to lack of GRKs-mediated phosphorylation sites. Our findings highlight the potential of this knowledge for molecular, pharmacological and physiological studies on GPCR splice variants in the future.
