Image_1_B-arrestin-2 Signaling Is Important to Preserve Cardiac Function During Aging.pdf
Experiments reported here tested the hypothesis that β-arrestin-2 is an important element in the preservation of cardiac function during aging. We tested this hypothesis by aging β-arrestin-2 knock-out (KO) mice, and wild-type equivalent (WT) to 12 ...

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).

Arrestins specifically bind active phosphorylated G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Receptor binding induces the release of the arrestin C-tail, which in non-visual arrestins contains high-affinity binding sites for clathrin and its adaptor AP2. Thus, serving as a physical link between the receptor and key components of the internalization machinery

The β-blocker Nebivolol Is a GRK/β-arrestin Biased Agonist [PDF]
Nebivolol, a third generation β-adrenoceptor (β-AR) antagonist (β-blocker), causes vasodilation by inducing nitric oxide (NO) production. The mechanism via which nebivolol induces NO production remains unknown, resulting in the genesis of much of the ...

β-Arrestin-Mediated Signaling Improves the Efficacy of Therapeutics
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 ...

Evolution of the shut-off steps of vertebrate phototransduction [PDF]
Different isoforms of the genes involved in phototransduction are expressed in vertebrate rod and cone photoreceptors, providing a unique example of parallel evolution via gene duplication.
