On the origins of arrestin and rhodopsin [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2008
Background G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the most numerous proteins in mammalian genomes, and the most common targets of clinical drugs. However, their evolution remains enigmatic.

The Atypical Chemerin Receptor GPR1 Displays Different Modes of Interaction with β-Arrestins in Humans and Mice with Important Consequences on Subcellular Localization and Trafficking

open access: yesCells, 2022
Atypical chemokine receptors (ACKRs) have emerged as a subfamily of chemokine receptors regulating the local bioavailability of their ligands through scavenging, concentration, or transport.

GRKs and β-Arrestins: “Gatekeepers” of Mitochondrial Function in the Failing Heart

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2019
Mitochondrial regulation of energy production, calcium homeostasis, and cell death are critical for cardiac function. Accordingly, the structural and functional abnormalities of these organelles (mitochondrial dysfunction) contribute to developing ...

Light intensity-dependent arrestin switching for inactivation of a light-sensitive GPCR, bistable opsin [PDF]

open access: yesiScience
Summary: Inactivation of most light-sensitive G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) opsins involves arrestin binding to terminate cell responses. In the zebrafish pineal organ, UV sensitive parapinopsin 1 (PP1)-expressing cells exhibit color opponency ...

Historical Perspective of the G Protein-Coupled Receptor Kinase Family

open access: yesCells, 2021
Agonist activation of G protein-coupled receptors promotes sequential interaction of the receptor with heterotrimeric G proteins, G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs), and arrestins. GRKs play a central role in mediating the switch from G protein to

The arrestin superfamily: cone arrestins are a fourth family [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1995
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 ...

Interactions between β-arrestin proteins and the cytoskeletal system, and their relevance to neurodegenerative disorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
β-arrestins, which have multiple cellular functions, were initially described as proteins that desensitize rhodopsin and other G protein-coupled receptors.

Arrestins in Apoptosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Programmed cell death (apoptosis) is a coordinated set of events eventually leading to the massive activation of specialized proteases (caspases) that cleave numerous substrates, orchestrating fairly uniform biochemical changes than culminate in cellular suicide. Apoptosis can be triggered by a variety of stimuli, from external signals or growth factor
