G-protein-coupled receptor kinases in inflammation and disease [PDF]

Genes & Immunity, 2015
G-protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) are serine/threonine protein kinases originally discovered for their role in G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) phosphorylation. Recent studies have demonstrated a much broader function for this kinase family including phosphorylation of cytosolic substrates involved in cell signaling pathways stimulated by ...

G protein receptor kinase type 2: A novel target in cardiovascular drug development [PDF]

Hospital Pharmacology, 2014
In spite of significant advancement in pharmacotherapy, heart failure remains one of the main causes of death worldwide. The existing treatment of heart failure prolongs life span by slowing down the pathological process but does not induce heart healing.

G-protein-coupled receptor kinases

Trends 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 ...

C-terminal threonines and serines play distinct roles in the desensitization of rhodopsin, a G protein-coupled receptor

eLife, 2015
Rod photoreceptors generate measurable responses to single-photon activation of individual molecules of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), rhodopsin.

G-protein-coupled receptor kinases

Kidney International, 1996
beta-Adrenergic receptors are prototypes of the many G-protein-coupled receptors. Activation and inactivation of these receptors are regulated by multiple mechanisms which can affect either their function or their expression. The most obvious changes of such receptor systems are induced by activation of the receptors themselves by their respective ...

G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 promotes cardiac hypertrophy.

PLoS ONE, 2017
The increase in protein activity and upregulation of G-protein coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) is a hallmark of cardiac stress and heart failure. Inhibition of GRK2 improved cardiac function and survival and diminished cardiac remodeling in various ...

G Protein Coupled Receptor Kinase 3 Regulates Breast Cancer Migration, Invasion, and Metastasis. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a heterogeneous disease that has a poor prognosis and limited treatment options. Chemokine receptor interactions are important modulators of breast cancer metastasis; however, it is now recognized that quantitative

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 ...

GIT1 protects against breast cancer growth through negative regulation of Notch

Nature Communications, 2022
Notch signalling is reported to be hyperactivated in oestrogen receptor-negative (ER-) breast cancer. Here the authors show that G protein-coupled receptor kinase-interacting protein 1 (GIT1) negatively regulates Notch signalling and tumour growth in ER-

G Protein-Coupled Estrogen Receptor: Rapid Effects on Hippocampal-Dependent Spatial Memory and Synaptic Plasticity

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2020
In the hippocampus, estrogen regulates gene transcription linked to neuronal growth, neuroprotection, and the maintenance of memory function (1–3). The mechanism is likely to involve genomic regulation through classic estrogen receptor (ER) signaling ...
