Presynaptic G Protein-Coupled Receptors: Gatekeepers of Addiction?

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2016
Drug abuse and addiction cause widespread social and public health problems, and the neurobiology underlying drug actions and drug use and abuse is an area of intensive research.

G Protein-Coupled Receptors in Taste Physiology and Pharmacology

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Heterotrimeric G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) comprise the largest receptor family in mammals and are responsible for the regulation of most physiological functions.

Signal Transduction of Sphingosine-1-Phosphate G Protein—Coupled Receptors

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2006
Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive lipid capable of eliciting dramatic effects in a variety of cell types. Signaling by this molecule is by a family of five G protein—coupled receptors named S1P1–5 that signal through a variety of pathways to ...

A modeling strategy for G-protein coupled receptors

open access: yesAIMS Biophysics, 2016
Cell responses can be triggered via G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) that interact with small molecules, peptides or proteins and transmit the signal over the membrane via structural changes to activate intracellular pathways.

G Protein-Coupled Receptor Kinases Take Central Stage

open access: yesCells, 2022
The relevance of the family of G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) is based on its key participation in the regulation and intracellular dynamics of the largest family of membrane receptors, namely G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) [...]

Multiple endocytic pathways of G protein-coupled receptors delineated by GIT1 sensitivity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Recently, we identified a GTPase-activating protein for the ADP ribosylation factor family of small GTP-binding proteins that we call GIT1. This protein initially was identified as an interacting partner for the G protein-coupled receptor kinases, and ...

Lysophospholipid G Protein-coupled Receptors [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2004
The many biological responses documented for lysophospholipids that include lysophosphatidic acid and sphingosine 1-phosphate can be mechanistically attributed to signaling through specific G protein-coupled receptors. At least nine receptors have now been identified, and the total number is likely to be larger.

Interaction of Prokineticin Receptors with Accessory Proteins

open access: yesEncyclopedia, 2023
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are transmembrane proteins that mediate the intracellular pathway of signals not only through heterotrimeric GTP-binding proteins (G proteins) but also through their associations with a variety of additional partner ...

G-protein-coupled receptor kinases

open access: yesTrends in Biochemical Sciences, 1991
Rhodopsin kinase and the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (beta ARK) catalyse the phosphorylation of the activated forms of the G-protein-coupled receptors, rhodopsin and the beta 2-adrenergic receptor (beta 2AR), respectively. The interaction between receptor and kinase is independent of second messengers and appears to involve a multipoint attachment ...
