This presumed GAIN domain is found in human Adhesion G-protein coupled receptor G2 (ADGRG2) and similar proteins. ADGRG2 is an orphan receptor that plays an important regulatory role in male fertility [1]. Although the endogenous ligand for ADGRG2 is currently unknown, ADGRG2 is known to play important roles for maintaining chloride/acid-base homeostasis through coupling to the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator [2]. ADGRG2 is a multidomain protein. This domain, which is predicted to adopt an alpha-beta structure, is usually found associated with Pfam:PF00002.

This entry represents the Sperm protein, Enterokinase and Agrin (SEA) domain found in the adhesion G protein-coupled receptor Gpr126/ADGRG6. The domain adopts a ferredoxin-like alpha/beta sandwich fold and is located between the PTX and HormR domains in the extracellular region. In human GPR126, this domain contains a furin cleavage site that is conserved in many mammals and birds. After cleavage, the domain remains intact until mechanical force causes separation, similar to SEA domains in other proteins like Mucins and Notch. The SEA domain plays a role in regulating receptor function through proteolytic processing and mechanical force sensing.
