A human alpha-arrestin protein with a potential role in cargo protein trafficking within the endocytic system [PDF]

open access: yes
β-Arrestins are essential adaptors for G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) trafficking. Evolutionary ancestors of the β-arrestins – dubbed α-arrestins – are present in yeast/fungi and, similar to β-arrestins, recognise cargo proteins and mediate their ...

β-arrestin-2 is an essential regulator of pancreatic β-cell function under physiological and pathophysiological conditions

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Beta-arrestins have key roles in development and metabolic functions as euglycaemic control and insulin sentitivity. Here Zhuet al. show that beta-arrestin-2 regulates insulin secretion and glucose tolerance in mice by promoting CAMKII functions in beta ...

Functional specialization of beta-arrestin interactions revealed by proteomic analysis

open access: yes, 2007
Beta-arrestins are cytosolic proteins that form complexes with seven-transmembrane receptors after agonist stimulation and phosphorylation by the G protein-coupled receptor kinases. They play an essential role in receptor desensitization and endocytosis,

Arrestins regulate cell spreading and motility via focal adhesion dynamics

open access: yes, 2012
Arrestins bind G protein-coupled receptors and more than 100 non-receptor partners, regulating various signaling pathways and cellular functions. The interactions of many proteins (e.g., Src, JNK3, ERK½, Mdm2, etc.) with receptor-bound arrestin localize ...

Arrestins in Host–Pathogen Interactions

open access: yes, 2013
In the context of host-pathogen interaction, host cell receptors and signaling pathways are essential for both invading pathogens, which exploit them for their own profit, and the defending organism, which activates early mechanism of defense, known as innate immunity, to block the aggression.

RNAi targeting Caenorhabditis elegans α-arrestins has little effect on lifespan

open access: yes, 2017
Background: α-arrestins are a family of proteins that are implicated in multiple biological processes, including metabolism and receptor desensitization.

Arrestins: multifunctional regulators of signaling pathways

open access: yes, 2019
The four vertebrate arrestins comprise a family of proteins that are responsible for the desensitization and internalization of over 800 subtypes of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). The arrestins also serve as independent signal transducers in both a

Subcellular localization of alpha arrestins.

open access: yes, 2012
Vasopressin receptor 2 HA-V2R-V5-stably transfected HEK293T cells were transiently transfected with expression constructs of alpha arrestins with C-terminal fusions of fluorescent protein mCherry.

Arresting a Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) Channel

open access: yes, 2010
β-Arrestins, originally discovered to desensitize activated G protein-coupled receptors, (aka seven-transmembrane receptors, 7TMRs) also mediate 7TMR internalization and G protein-independent signaling via these receptors.

A Dopamine D2 Receptor Mutant Capable of G Protein- Mediated Signaling but Deficient in Arrestin Binding1

open access: yes, 2008
Arrestins mediate G protein-coupled receptor desensitization, internalization, and signaling. Dopamine D2 and D3 receptors have similar structures but distinct characteristics of interaction with arrestins.
