Auriculocondylar syndrome 2 results from the dominant-negative action of PLCB4 variants

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2022
Auriculocondylar syndrome 2 (ARCND2) is a rare autosomal dominant craniofacial malformation syndrome linked to multiple genetic variants in the coding sequence of phospholipase C β4 (PLCB4). PLCB4 is a direct signaling effector of the endothelin receptor

Transforming G proteins [PDF]

open access: yesOncogene, 2001
Heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide binding proteins, commonly known as G proteins form a super-family of signal transduction proteins. They are peripherally associated with the plasma membrane and provide signal coupling to seven transmembrane surface receptors. G proteins are composed of monomers of alpha, beta, and gamma subunits.
