Structural comparison of unconventional G protein YchF with heterotrimeric G protein and small G protein [PDF]
Guanine nucleotide-binding (G) proteins, namely, phosphate-binding (P) loop GTPases, play a critical role in life processes among different species. Based on the structural characteristics, G proteins can be divided into heterotrimeric G proteins, small ...

The Role of G-proteins and G-protein Regulating Proteins in Depressive Disorders [PDF]
Progress toward new antidepressant therapies has been relatively slow over the past few decades, with the result that individuals suffering from depression often struggle to find an effective treatment – a process often requiring months. Furthermore, the

DNA G-Quadruplex-Binding Proteins: An Updated Overview
DNA G-quadruplexes (G4s) are non-canonical secondary structures formed in guanine-rich sequences. Within the human genome, G4s are found in regulatory regions such as gene promoters and telomeres to control replication, transcription, and telomere ...

In highly organized multicellular organisms such as humans, the functions of an individual cell are dependent on signal transduction through G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and subsequently heterotrimeric G proteins. As most of the elements belonging

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.

Cannabinoid Receptor Interacting Protein 1a (CRIP1a): Function and Structure
Cannabinoid receptor interacting protein 1a (CRIP1a) is an important CB1 cannabinoid receptor-associated protein, first identified from a yeast two-hybrid screen to modulate CB1-mediated N-type Ca2+ currents.

Endomembrane-Based Signaling by GPCRs and G-Proteins
G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and G-proteins have a range of roles in many physiological and pathological processes and are among the most studied signaling proteins. A plethora of extracellular stimuli can activate the GPCR and can elicit distinct

G protein-coupled receptor signaling in cardiovascular system: Specificity versus diversity
In metazoan organisms, communication of the constituent cells to its exterior is an essential component of tissue homeostasis and organ function. A plethora of growth factors, cytokines, hormones, regulatory small molecules, etc., interact with the cells
