Deceptive beauty of non-natural structures. [PDF]
Abstract Structures of proteins and multiprotein complexes are considered landmark achievements. However, in many cases, mutant proteins are used for structural work. Even when wild type proteins are used, crystallization or complex formation for cryoEM is performed in highly nonphysiological conditions.

Progressive reduction of its expression in rods reveals two pools of arrestin-1 in the outer segment with different roles in photoresponse recovery. [PDF]
Light-induced rhodopsin signaling is turned off with sub-second kinetics by rhodopsin phosphorylation followed by arrestin-1 binding. To test the availability of the arrestin-1 pool in dark-adapted outer segment (OS) for rhodopsin shutoff, we measured ...

β-arrestin functionally regulates the non-bleaching pigment parapinopsin in lamprey pineal. [PDF]
The light response of vertebrate visual cells is achieved by light-sensing proteins such as opsin-based pigments as well as signal transduction proteins, including visual arrestin.

The arrestin superfamily: cone arrestins are a fourth family [PDF]
Arrestins constitute a superfamily of regulatory proteins that down‐regulate phosphorylated G‐protein membrane receptors, including rod and cone photoreceptors and adrenergic receptors. The potential role of arrestin in color visual processes led us to identify a cDNA encoding a cone‐like arrestin in Xenopus laevis, the principle amphibian biological ...

Targeted disruption of β-arrestin 2-mediated signaling pathways by aptamer chimeras leads to inhibition of leukemic cell growth. [PDF]
β-arrestins, ubiquitous cellular scaffolding proteins that act as signaling mediators of numerous critical cellular pathways, are attractive therapeutic targets because they promote tumorigenesis in several tumor models.

An increased vulnerability has been detected after ischemia/reperfusion injury in cardiomyocytes in diabetic patients. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) has been proven to have a notable cardioprotective effect in cardiomyocytes.

The effect of arrestin conformation on the recruitment of c-Raf1, MEK1, and ERK1/2 activation.
Arrestins are multifunctional signaling adaptors originally discovered as proteins that "arrest" G protein activation by G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs).
