Targeting G protein–coupled receptor kinases to G protein–coupled receptors
Current Opinion in Endocrine and Metabolic Research, 2021 G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) interact with three protein families following agonist binding: heterotrimeric G proteins, G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) and arrestins. GRK-mediated phosphorylation of GPCRs promotes arrestin binding to uncouple the receptor from G protein, a process called desensitization, and for many GPCRs, arrestin ...
