Adipokinetic hormone receptor (AKHR) was regarded as the crucial regulator of lipid consuming, but now has been renewed as a pluripotent neuropeptide G protein-coupled receptor. It has been identified in all sequenced bee genomes from the solitary to the eusocial. In the current study, we try to clarify the transitions of AKHR on lipid utilization and other potential functions from solitary to eusocial bees. The results showed that the AKHRs were divided into different groups based on their social complexity approximately. Nevertheless, the critical motifs and tertiary structures were highly conserved. As to the post-translational modifications, the eusocial possessed more phosphorylation residues and modification patterns, which might be due to the necessity of more diverse functions. These results suggest that AKHRs are highly conserved on both primary motifs and tertiary structures, but more flexible on posttranslational modifications so as to accommodate to more complicated eusocial life.
