Peptide substrates for G protein‐coupled receptor kinase 2 [PDF]
G protein‐coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) control the signaling and activation of G protein‐coupled receptors through phosphorylation. In this study, consensus substrate motifs for GRK2 were identified from the sequences of GRK2 protein substrates, and 17 candidate peptides were synthesized to identify peptide substrates with high affinity for GRK2 ...

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

Clathrin Box in G Protein-coupled Receptor Kinase 2 [PDF]
beta(1)-Adrenergic receptor (beta(1)AR) shows the resistance to agonist-induced internalization. However, beta(1)AR can internalize as G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) is fused to its carboxyl terminus. Internalization of the beta(1)AR and GRK2 fusion protein (beta(1)AR/GRK2) is dependent on dynamin but independent of beta-arrestin and ...

Novel role for proteinase-activated receptor 2 (PAR2) in membrane trafficking of proteinase-activated receptor 4 (PAR4) [PDF]
Proteinase-activated receptors 4 (PAR(4)) is a class A G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) recognized through the ability of serine proteases such as thrombin and trypsin to mediate receptor activation. Due to the irreversible nature of activation, a fresh

Role of G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 in tumoral angiogenesis. [PDF]
Downregulation of G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) in endothelial cells has recently been identified as a relevant event in the tumoral angiogenic switch. Based on the effects of altering GRK2 dosage in cell and animal models, this kinase appears to act as a hub in key signaling pathways involved in vascular stabilization and remodeling ...

MAPK-dependent Degradation of G Protein-coupled Receptor Kinase 2 [PDF]
G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) is a key modulator of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR). Altered expression of GRK2 has been described to occur during pathological conditions characterized by impaired GPCR signaling. We have reported recently that GRK2 is rapidly degraded by the proteasome pathway and that beta-arrestin function and Src ...

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) transmit extracellular signals to the inside by activation of intracellular effector proteins. Different agonists can promote differential receptor-induced signaling responses – termed bias – potentially by eliciting ...

Chemical Genetic Engineering of G Protein-coupled Receptor Kinase 2 [PDF]
G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) play a pivotal role in receptor regulation. Efforts to study the acute effects of GRKs in intact cells have been limited by a lack of specific inhibitors. In the present study we have developed an engineered version of GRK2 that is specifically and reversibly inhibited by the substituted nucleotide analog 1 ...
