Two chimeric regulators of G-protein signaling (RGS) proteins differentially modulate soybean heterotrimeric G-protein cycle.
Heterotrimeric G-proteins and the regulator of G-protein signaling (RGS) proteins, which accelerate the inherent GTPase activity of Gα proteins, are common in animals and encoded by large gene families; however, in plants G-protein signaling is thought to be more limited in scope. For example, Arabidopsis thaliana contains one Gα, one Gβ, three Gγ, and one RGS protein. Recent examination of the...
متن کاملPhosphorylation-Dependent Regulation of G-Protein Cycle during Nodule Formation in Soybean.
Signaling pathways mediated by heterotrimeric G-protein complexes comprising Gα, Gβ, and Gγ subunits and their regulatory RGS (Regulator of G-protein Signaling) protein are conserved in all eukaryotes. We have shown that the specific Gβ and Gγ proteins of a soybean (Glycine max) heterotrimeric G-protein complex are involved in regulation of nodulation. We now demonstrate the role of Nod factor ...

متن کاملRGS-7 Completes a Receptor-Independent Heterotrimeric G Protein Cycle to Asymmetrically Regulate Mitotic Spindle Positioning in C. elegans
Heterotrimeric G proteins promote microtubule forces that position mitotic spindles during asymmetric cell division in C. elegans embryos. While all previously studied G protein functions require activation by seven-transmembrane receptors, this function appears to be receptor independent. We found that mutating a regulator of G protein signaling, RGS-7, resulted in hyperasymmetric spindle move...
متن کاملEndogenous regulator of G-protein signaling proteins regulate the kinetics of Galphaq/11-mediated modulation of ion channels in central nervous system neurons.
Slow synaptic potentials are generated when metabotropic G-protein-coupled receptors activate heterotrimeric G-proteins, which in turn modulate ion channels. Many neurons generate excitatory postsynaptic potentials mediated by G-proteins of the Galphaq/11 family, which in turn activate phospholipase C-beta. Accessory GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs) are thought to be required to accelerate GTP...
