Pathogenic Gαo Mutants Drive Dominant GPCR Coupling in GNAO1 Encephalopathies

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 1, 15 January 2026.
Mutations in GNAO1, the gene encoding Gαo, are associated with a wide range of neurodevelopmental disorders. In this study, we show that Gαo variants linked to the most severe patient phenotypes fail to disengage from activated Gi/o‐coupled GPCRs, thereby blocking GRK‐mediated receptor phosphorylation and internalization.
