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 ...

A modeling strategy for G-protein coupled receptors
AIMS Biophysics, 2016 Cell responses can be triggered via G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) that interact with small molecules, peptides or proteins and transmit the signal over the membrane via structural changes to activate intracellular pathways.

Current applications of mini G proteins to study the structure and function of G protein-coupled receptors [PDF]
, 2018 G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) regulate intracellular signalling pathways that contribute to virtually all aspects of cell function. Characterising GPCRs in each of their conformational states is key to understanding their mechanism of action, but ...

Signal Transduction of Sphingosine-1-Phosphate G Protein—Coupled Receptors
The Scientific World Journal, 2006 Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive lipid capable of eliciting dramatic effects in a variety of cell types. Signaling by this molecule is by a family of five G protein—coupled receptors named S1P1–5 that signal through a variety of pathways to ...

G Protein-Coupled Receptor Kinases Take Central Stage
Cells, 2022 The relevance of the family of G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) is based on its key participation in the regulation and intracellular dynamics of the largest family of membrane receptors, namely G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) [...]

Lysophospholipid G Protein-coupled Receptors [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2004 The many biological responses documented for lysophospholipids that include lysophosphatidic acid and sphingosine 1-phosphate can be mechanistically attributed to signaling through specific G protein-coupled receptors. At least nine receptors have now been identified, and the total number is likely to be larger.
