GPR54 regulates ERK1/2 activity and hypothalamic gene expression in a Gα(q/11) and β-arrestin-dependent manner. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 G protein-coupled receptor 54 (GPR54) is a G(q/11)-coupled 7 transmembrane-spanning receptor (7TMR). Activation of GPR54 by kisspeptin (Kp) stimulates PIP(2) hydrolysis, Ca(2+) mobilization and ERK1/2 MAPK phosphorylation.

The CXCL12/CXCR4/ACKR3 Signaling Axis Regulates PKM2 and Glycolysis
Cells, 2022 In response to CXCL12, CXCR4 and ACKR3 both recruit β-arrestin 2, regulating the assembly of interacting proteins that drive signaling and contribute to the functions of both receptors in cancer and multiple other diseases.

G protein-coupled receptors not currently in the spotlight: free fatty acid receptor 2 and GPR35 [PDF]
, 2017 It is widely appreciated that G protein-coupled receptors have been the most successfully exploited class of targets for the development of small molecule medicines. Despite this, to date, less than 15% of the non-olfactory G protein-coupled receptors in

Differential Signaling Profiles of MC4R Mutations with Three Different Ligands [PDF]
, 2020 The melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R) is a key player in hypothalamic weight regulation and energy expenditure as part of the leptin-melanocortin pathway. Mutations in this G protein coupled receptor (GPCR) are the most common cause for monogenetic obesity,

β-Arrestin-dependent deactivation of mouse melanopsin.
PLoS ONE, 2014 In mammals, the expression of the unusual visual pigment, melanopsin, is restricted to a small subset of intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs), whose signaling regulate numerous non-visual functions including sleep, circadian ...

β-Arrestin-Mediated Signaling Improves the Efficacy of Therapeutics
Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2012 β-Arrestins (β-arrestin-1 and β-arrestin-2) were first identified as proteins that have the ability to desensitize G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). However, it has recently been found that β-arrestins can activate signaling pathways independent of G ...
