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 کاملG protein-coupled receptor kinase 5 regulates airway responses induced by muscarinic receptor activation.
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) transduce extracellular signals into intracellular events. The waning responsiveness of GPCRs in the face of persistent agonist stimulation, or desensitization, is a necessary event that ensures physiological homeostasis. GPCR kinases (GRKs) are important regulators of GPCR desensitization. GRK5, one member of the GRK family, desensitizes central M(2) muscari...
متن کاملThe G protein-coupled receptor-associated protein 1 (GASP-1) regulates rimonabant-induced downregulation of GPR55
Background The G protein-coupled receptor 55 (GPR55) has recently been suggested to be responsible for those cannabinoid responses that could not be attributed to either the cannabinoid 1 (CB1) or cannabinoid 2 (CB2) receptor. Several potent GPR55 agonists were identified such as lysophosphatidylinositol (LPI) and several synthetic cannabinoids: One of these is rimonabant (SR141716A), an antago...
متن کاملThe G-protein-coupled receptor GPR103 regulates bone formation.
GPR103 is a G-protein-coupled receptor with reported expression in brain, heart, kidney, adrenal gland, retina, and testis. It encodes a 455-amino-acid protein homologous to neuropeptide FF2, neuropeptide Y2, and galanin GalR1 receptors. Its natural ligand was recently identified as 26RFa, a novel human RF-amide-related peptide with orexigenic activity. To identify the function of GPR103, we ge...
متن کاملG protein-coupled estrogen receptor regulates mammary tumorigenesis and metastasis.
UNLABELLED The role of 17β-estradiol (E2) in breast cancer development and tumor growth has traditionally been attributed exclusively to the activation of estrogen receptor-α (ERα). Although targeted inhibition of ERα is a successful approach for patients with ERα(+) breast cancer, many patients fail to respond or become resistant to anti-estrogen therapy. The discovery of the G protein-coupled...
