Regulation Role of Non-Rhodopsin G Protein-coupled Receptor Kinases on Tumor

Zhongliu Fangzhi Yanjiu, 2019
G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) are involved in a wide range of cellular physiology and pathological activities by specifically phosphorylating activated G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) to terminate GPCR signaling and phosphorylating non ...

Multi-Omics Analysis of Multiple Glucose-Sensing Receptor Systems in Yeast

Biomolecules, 2022
The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has long been used to produce alcohol from glucose and other sugars. While much is known about glucose metabolism, relatively little is known about the receptors and signaling pathways that indicate glucose availability.

Powdered G-Protein-Coupled Receptors [PDF]

The Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, 2016
Preparation and storage of functional membrane proteins such as G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are crucial to the processes of drug delivery and discovery. Here, we describe a method of preparing powdered GPCRs using rhodopsin as the prototype. We purified rhodopsin in CHAPS detergent with low detergent to protein ratio so the bulk of the sample ...

Regulators of G protein signalling proteins in the human myometrium [PDF]

, 2009
The contractile state of the human myometrium is controlled by extracellular signals that promote relaxation or contraction. Many of these signals function through G proteincoupled receptors at the cell surface, stimulating heterotrimeric G proteins and ...

REGA-SIGN: Development of a Novel Set of NanoBRET-Based G Protein Biosensors

Biosensors, 2023
Despite G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) being important theapeutic targets, the signaling properties of many GPCRs remain poorly characterized. GPCR activation primarily initiates heterotrimeric G protein signaling. To detect ligand-induced G protein

On the hierarchical classification of G Protein-Coupled Receptors [PDF]

, 2007
Motivation: G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) play an important role in many physiological systems by transducing an extracellular signal into an intracellular response. Over 50% of all marketed drugs are targeted towards a GPCR.

Free fatty acid receptors, G protein‐coupled receptor 120 and G protein‐coupled receptor 40, are essential for oil‐induced gastric inhibitory polypeptide secretion

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, 2019
Aims/Introduction Incretin hormone glucose‐dependent insulinotropic polypeptide/gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) plays a key role in high‐fat diet‐induced obesity and insulin resistance.

Receptor Quaternary Organization Explains G Protein-Coupled Receptor Family Structure

Cell Reports, 2017
The organization of Rhodopsin-family G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) at the cell surface is controversial. Support both for and against the existence of dimers has been obtained in studies of mostly individual receptors.

Cryo‐EM structure of G‐protein‐coupled receptor GPR17 in complex with inhibitory G protein

MedComm, 2022
GPR17 is a class A orphan G protein‐coupled receptor (GPCR) expressed in neurons and oligodendrocyte progenitors of the central nervous system (CNS). The signalling of GPR17 occurs through the heterotrimeric Gi, but its activation mechanism is unclear ...

Competing G protein‐coupled receptor kinases balance G protein and β‐arrestin signaling

Molecular Systems Biology, 2012
Seven‐transmembrane receptors (7TMRs) are involved in nearly all aspects of chemical communications and represent major drug targets. 7TMRs transmit their signals not only via heterotrimeric G proteins but also through β‐arrestins, whose recruitment to ...
