G-protein Coupled Receptor Dimerization
A growing body of evidence suggests that GPCRs exist and function as dimers or higher oligomers. The evidence for GPCR dimerization comes from biochemical, biophysical and functional studies. In addition, researchers have shown the occurrence of heterodimerization between different members of the GPCR family. Two receptors can interact with each other to make a dimer through their extracellular...
متن کاملDrosophila GoLoco-protein Pins is a target of Galpha(o)-mediated G protein-coupled receptor signaling.
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) transduce their signals through trimeric G proteins, inducing guanine nucleotide exchange on their Galpha-subunits; the resulting Galpha-GTP transmits the signal further inside the cell. GoLoco domains present in many proteins play important roles in multiple trimeric G protein-dependent activities, physically binding Galpha-subunits of the Galpha(i/o) class....
متن کاملHedgehog Signaling: Is Smo a G Protein-Coupled Receptor?
The Hedgehog signal transducer Smoothened is structurally similar to G protein-coupled receptors. Now there is direct evidence that Smoothened relies on heterotrimeric G proteins in order to transduce the Hedgehog signal.
متن کاملG protein-coupled receptor-mediated calcium signaling in astrocytes
Astrocytes express a large variety of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) which mediate the transduction of extracellular signals into intracellular calcium responses. This transduction is provided by a complex network of biochemical reactions which mobilizes a wealth of possible calcium-mobilizing second messenger molecules. Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate is probably the best known of these mole...
متن کاملRegulation of G protein-coupled receptor signaling by scaffold proteins.
The actions of many hormones and neurotransmitters are mediated through stimulation of G protein-coupled receptors. A primary mechanism by which these receptors exert effects inside the cell is by association with heterotrimeric G proteins, which can activate a wide variety of cellular enzymes and ion channels. G protein-coupled receptors can also interact with a number of cytoplasmic scaffold ...
