Biased Signaling at the β2-adrenergic Receptor is established by Receptor-Transducer Interactions
(2018)β-Adrenergic receptors (βAR) are one of the key modulators of cardio-pulmonary functions and belong to a large family of membrane proteins, termed as G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). β-blockers (βAR antagonists) and ... -
Functional desensitization of the isolated beta-adrenergic receptor by the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase: potential role of an analog of the retinal protein arrestin (48-kDa protein).
(Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 1987-12)The beta-adrenergic receptor kinase is an enzyme, possibly analogous to rhodopsin kinase, that multiply phosphorylates the beta-adrenergic receptor only when it is occupied by stimulatory agonists. Since this kinase may ...
