GRIS: glycoprotein-hormone receptor information system.
The glycoprotein-hormone receptor information system (GRIS) presents a comprehensive view on all available molecular data for the lutropin/choriogonadotropin receptor, follitropin receptor, and thyrotropin receptor G protein-coupled receptors. It features a mutation database presently containing 696 point mutations, combined with all sequences and the associated homology models. The mutation information was automatically extracted from the literature and manually augmented with respect to constitutivity, surface expression, sensitivity to hormones, and binding affinity. All information in this integrated system is presented in a G protein-coupled receptor specialist-friendly way. A series of interactive tools such as rotamer analysis, mutation prediction, or cavity visualization aids with the design and interpretation of experiments. A universal residue numbering system has been introduced to ease database searches as well as the use of the information in conjunction with literature data from diverse origins. Users can upload new mutations. GRIS is freely accessible at http://gris.ulb.ac.be/.
