Differences in the signaling pathways of α1A- and α1B-adrenoceptors are related to different endosomal targeting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Aims: To compare the constitutive and agonist-dependent endosomal trafficking of α1A- and α1B-adrenoceptors (ARs) and to establish if the internalization pattern determines the signaling pathways of each subtype.

Comparative rates of desensitization of beta-adrenergic receptors by the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase and the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1991
Three separate processes may contribute to rapid beta-adrenergic receptor desensitization: functional uncoupling from the stimulatory guanine nucleotide-binding protein Gs, mediated by phosphorylation of the receptors by two distinct kinases, the specific beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (beta ARK) and the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA), as

Rapid desensitization of neonatal rat liver beta-adrenergic receptors. A role for beta-adrenergic receptor kinase. [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 1994
Exposure of beta-adrenergic receptors (BAR) to agonists often leads to a rapid loss of receptor responsiveness. The proposed mechanisms of such rapid receptor desensitization include receptor phosphorylation by either cAMP-dependent protein kinase or the specific beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (BARK), leading to functional uncoupling from adenylyl ...

The receptor kinase family: primary structure of rhodopsin kinase reveals similarities to the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase. [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1991
Light-dependent deactivation of rhodopsin as well as homologous desensitization of beta-adrenergic receptors involves receptor phosphorylation that is mediated by the highly specific protein kinases rhodopsin kinase (RK) and beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (beta ARK), respectively. We report here the cloning of a complementary DNA for RK.

Mechanism of beta-adrenergic receptor kinase activation by G proteins

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1993
The beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (beta-ARK) specifically phosphorylates the activated form of various G protein-coupled receptors such as the beta 2-adrenergic receptor (beta 2-AR). Recently, G protein beta gamma subunits have been demonstrated to activate beta-ARK-mediated receptor phosphorylation.

Regulation of Neuromodulator Receptor Efficacy - Implications for Whole-Neuron and Synaptic Plasticity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Membrane receptors for neuromodulators (NM) are highly regulated in their distribution and efficacy - a phenomenon which influences the individual cell's response to central signals of NM release.

Tailoring therapy for heart failure: the pharmacogenomics of adrenergic receptor signaling. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Heart failure is one of the leading causes of mortality in Western countries, and β-blockers are a cornerstone of its treatment. However, the response to these drugs is variable among individuals, which might be explained, at least in part, by genetic ...

Reduced beta-adrenergic receptor activation decreases G-protein expression and beta-adrenergic receptor kinase activity in porcine heart. [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 1995
To determine whether beta-adrenergic receptor agonist activation influences guanosine 5'-triphosphate-binding protein (G-protein) expression and beta-adrenergic receptor kinase activity in the heart, we examined the effects of chronic beta 1-adrenergic receptor antagonist treatment (bisoprolol, 0.2 mg/kg per d i.v., 35 d) on components of the ...

Inhibition of the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase by polyanions.

open access: yesThe Journal of biological chemistry, 1989
The beta-adrenergic receptor kinase, which specifically phosphorylates the agonist-occupied beta-adrenergic receptor, is strongly inhibited by polyanions. Heparin and dextran sulfate inhibit the enzyme with an IC50 of approximately 0.15 microM. De-N-sulfated heparin is approximately 8-fold less potent.

β-Adrenergic Receptor Kinase (GRK2) Colocalizes with β-Adrenergic Receptors during Agonist-induced Receptor Internalization [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1997
Rapid regulation of G protein-coupled receptors appears to involve agonist-promoted receptor phosphorylation by G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs). This is followed by binding of uncoupling proteins termed arrestins and transient receptor internalization. In this report we show that the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (betaARK-1 or GRK2) follows
