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 activity is increased in hypertension.
Impaired vascular beta-adrenergic responsiveness may play an important role in the development and/or maintenance of hypertension. This defect has been associated with an alteration in receptor/guanine nucleotide regulatory protein (G-protein) interactions. However, the locus of this defect remains unclear. G-Protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) phosphorylate serine/threonine residues on G-p...
متن کاملG-Protein-coupled receptor kinase activity in hypertension : increased vascular and lymphocyte G-protein receptor kinase-2 protein expression.
Impaired receptor-stimulated adenylyl cyclase activation has been observed in lymphocytes from hypertensive subjects and has been linked to an increase in lymphocyte G-protein receptor kinase-2 (GRK-2) protein expression. However, whether the increase in lymphocyte GRK-2 reflected an increase in vascular GRK-2 was unknown. Therefore, we compared GRK-2 protein expression in lymphocytes and aorta...
متن کاملRegulation of G protein-coupled receptor trafficking.
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) mediate cellular responses to diverse extracellular stimuli to play a vital role in the control of physiology and behaviour. GPCR trafficking is of fundamental importance for the regulation of GPCRs signaling. In this mini review, we will discuss some of the recent findings on the mechanisms that regulate GPCR trafficking, which include (i) large dense-core v...
متن کاملRegulation of β-Adrenergic Receptor Signaling by S-Nitrosylation of G-Protein-Coupled Receptor Kinase 2
beta-adrenergic receptors (beta-ARs), prototypic G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), play a critical role in regulating numerous physiological processes. The GPCR kinases (GRKs) curtail G-protein signaling and target receptors for internalization. Nitric oxide (NO) and/or S-nitrosothiols (SNOs) can prevent the loss of beta-AR signaling in vivo, but the molecular details are unknown. Here we sh...
