Purification and characterization of the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase.
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1987 The beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (beta-ARK) is a recently discovered enzyme which specifically phosphorylates the agonist-occupied form of the beta-adrenergic receptor (beta-AR) as well as the light-bleached form of rhodopsin. beta-ARK is present in a wide variety of mammalian tissues.

The octopamine receptor Octβ2R regulates ovulation in Drosophila melanogaster.
PLoS ONE, 2014 Oviposition is induced upon mating in most insects. Ovulation is a primary step in oviposition, representing an important target to control insect pests and vectors, but limited information is available on the underlying mechanism.

The heartbreak of depression: 'Psycho-cardiac' coupling in myocardial infarction [PDF]
, 2017 Ample evidence identifies strong links between major depressive disorder (MDD) and both risk of ischemic or coronary heart disease (CHD) and resultant morbidity and mortality. The molecular mechanistic bases of these linkages are poorly defined. Systemic

Labor-associated gene expression in the human uterine fundus, lower segment, and cervix [PDF]
, 2006 Background Preterm labor, failure to progress, and postpartum hemorrhage are the common causes of maternal and neonatal mortality or morbidity. All result from defects in the complex mechanisms controlling labor, which coordinate changes in the ...
