Background

Receptor activated by amino acids with a preference for basic amino acids such as L-Lys, L-Arg and L-ornithine but also by small and polar amino acids. The L-alpha amino acids respond is augmented by divalent cations Ca (2+) and Mg (2+) . Activated by extracellular calcium and osteocalin. Seems to act through a G (q) /G (11) and G (i) -coupled pathway. Mediates the non-genomic effects of androgens in multiple tissue. May coordinates nutritionnal and hormonal anabolic signals through the sensing of extracellular amino acids, osteocalcin, divalents ions and its responsiveness to anabolic steroids.
