QR code model: a new possibility for GPCR phosphorylation recognition
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest family of membrane proteins in the human body and are responsible for accurately transmitting extracellular information to cells. Arrestin is an important member of the GPCR signaling pathway.

SnapShot: β-Arrestin Functions
The arrestins are ubiquitously expressed adaptor proteins that orchestrate transmembrane signaling cascades triggered by the 7-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptors. While originally discovered as proteins that block receptor-G protein coupling, arrestins are now appreciated for their expanding repertoire of dynamic protein interactions and ...

X‐Arrestin: a new retinal arrestin mapping to the X chromosome [PDF]
We have been using a differential cDNA cloning approach to isolate human retina‐specific and retina‐enriched genes [1]. A 1,314 bp cDNA was isolated by this approach, representing a highly retina‐specific message encoding a 388 amino acid protein showing 58%, 50%, and 49% homology to bovine β‐arrestin, and bovine and human retinal arrestin (S‐antigen),
