Agonist-dependent phosphorylation of the alpha 2-adrenergic receptor by the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase.

open access: hybridJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1987
Desensitization of the beta-adrenergic receptor, a receptor which is coupled to the stimulation of adenylate cyclase, may be regulated via phosphorylation by a unique protein kinase. This recently discovered enzyme, known as the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase, only phosphorylates the agonist-occupied form of the beta-adrenergic receptor.

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

open access: greenProceedings 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.

Protein kinase translocation following beta-adrenergic receptor activation in C6 glioma cells.

open access: hybridJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1980
Incubation of C6 glioma cells with isoproterenol elicits an increase in cyclic AMP content, followed by an activation of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37). The cytoplasm of these glioma cells contains type II protein kinase and a small amount of cyclic AMP-independent protein kinase.

Beta-adrenergic receptor kinase: identification of a novel protein kinase that phosphorylates the agonist-occupied form of the receptor. [PDF]

open access: greenProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1986
Agonist-promoted desensitization of adenylate cyclase is intimately associated with phosphorylation of the beta-adrenergic receptor in mammalian, avian, and amphibian cells. However, the nature of the protein kinase(s) involved in receptor phosphorylation remains largely unknown.

Structure of the human gene encoding the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase.

open access: hybridJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1994
The beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (beta ARK) specifically phosphorylates the agonist-occupied forms of the beta 2-adrenergic receptor and related G protein-coupled receptors. beta ARK is one of the best characterized members of a growing family of G protein-coupled receptor kinases.

Phosphorylation and desensitization of human m2 muscarinic cholinergic receptors by two isoforms of the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase

open access: hybridJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1993
Studies of the human m2 (hm2) muscarinic cholinergic receptors (mAChR) have been performed to provide further insights into the potential regulation of these receptors by isoforms of the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (beta ARK). The hm2 mAChR and the isoforms beta ARK1 and beta ARK2 were individually expressed in, and purified from, insect Sf9 cells ...

The G protein coupled receptor kinase 2 plays an essential role in beta-adrenergic receptor-induced insulin resistance [PDF]

open access: bronzeCardiovascular Research, 2009
Insulin (Ins) resistance (IRES) associates to increased cardiovascular risk as observed in metabolic syndrome. Chronic stimulation of beta-adrenergic receptors (betaAR) due to exaggerated sympathetic nervous system activity is involved in the pathogenesis of IRES. The cellular levels of G protein coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) increase during chronic

A beta-adrenergic receptor kinase dominant negative mutant attenuates desensitization of the beta 2-adrenergic receptor.

open access: hybridJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1994
The beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (beta ARK) specifically phosphorylates the activated form of the beta 2-adrenergic receptor (beta 2AR) and related G protein-coupled receptors. To further elucidate the role of beta ARK in receptor desensitization, we generated a beta ARK dominant negative mutant by converting an invariant lysine residue in the ...

Overexpression of beta-arrestin and beta-adrenergic receptor kinase augment desensitization of beta 2-adrenergic receptors.

open access: hybridJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1993
Receptor-specific or homologous desensitization of beta 2-adrenergic receptors is thought to be effected via phosphorylation of the receptor by the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (beta ARK), followed by binding of beta-arrestin. We have generated stably transfected Chinese hamster ovary cell lines overexpressing either of the two regulatory proteins ...
