GPR133 (ADGRD1) is an adhesion G-protein-coupled receptor that signals through Gαs/cyclic AMP (cAMP) and is required for the growth of glioblastoma (GBM), an aggressive brain malignancy. The regulation of GPR133 signaling is incompletely understood. Here, we use proximity biotinylation proteomics to identify ESYT1, a Ca-dependent mediator of endoplasmic reticulum-plasma membrane bridge formation, as an intracellular interactor of GPR133. ESYT1 knockdown or knockout increases GPR133 signaling, while its overexpression has the opposite effect, without altering GPR133 levels in the plasma membrane. The GPR133-ESYT1 interaction requires the Ca-sensing C2C domain of ESYT1. Thapsigargin-mediated increases in cytosolic Ca relieve signaling-suppressive effects of ESYT1 by promoting ESYT1-GPR133 dissociation. ESYT1 knockdown or knockout in GBM slows tumor growth, suggesting tumorigenic functions of ESYT1. Our findings demonstrate a mechanism for the modulation of GPR133 signaling by increased cytosolic Ca, which reduces the signaling-suppressive interaction between GPR133 and ESYT1 to raise cAMP levels.

Adhesion G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) play crucial roles in numerous physiological and pathological conditions. However, the functions of adhesion GPCRs remain poorly understood because of the lack of effective modulators. Here, we used the adhesion GPCR D1 (ADGRD1/GPR133) as a model to unveil a strategy for finding exogenous agonists that target adhesion GPCRs while revealing previously unidentified functions of ADGRD1.

Osteoporosis represents an increasing health and socioeconomic burden on aging societies. Current therapeutic options often come with potentially severe side effects or lack long-term efficacy, highlighting the urgent need for more effective treatments. Identifying novel drug targets requires a thorough understanding of their physiological roles.

GPR133 is an adhesion-class G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) that has recently been de-orphanized. Its functions are complex and multifaceted. While GPR133 is primarily recognized for coupling with the Gs subunit to mediate elevated intracellular cAMP levels, its potential engagement with alternative signaling pathways remains poorly characterized.

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and aggressive primary brain malignancy. Adhesion G protein-coupled receptors (aGPCRs) have attracted interest for their potential as treatment targets. Here, we show that CD97 (ADGRE5) is the most promising aGPCR target in GBM, by virtue of its de novo expression compared to healthy brain tissue.
