Heptahelical receptor signaling: beyond the G protein paradigm.
(J Cell Biol, 1999-05-31)
Expansion of the alpha 2-adrenergic receptor family: cloning and characterization of a human alpha 2-adrenergic receptor subtype, the gene for which is located on chromosome 2.
(Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 1990-07)
Pharmacologic, biochemical, and genetic analyses have demonstrated the existence of
multiple alpha 2-adrenergic receptor (alpha 2AR) subtypes. We have cloned a human
alpha 2AR by using the polymerase chain reaction with ...
G-protein-coupled receptor genes as protooncogenes: constitutively activating mutation of the alpha 1B-adrenergic receptor enhances mitogenesis and tumorigenicity.
(Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 1991-12-15)
The alpha 1B-adrenergic receptor (alpha 1B-ADR) is a member of the G-protein-coupled
family of transmembrane receptors. When transfected into Rat-1 and NIH 3T3 fibroblasts,
this receptor induces focus formation ...
The neural basis of naming impairments in Alzheimer's disease revealed through positron emission tomography.
(Arch Clin Neuropsychol, 1999-05)
The naming impairments in Alzheimer's disease (AD) have been attributed to a variety
of cognitive processing deficits, including impairments in semantic memory, visual
perception, and lexical access. To further understand ...
A C-terminal motif found in the beta2-adrenergic receptor, P2Y1 receptor and cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator determines binding to the Na+/H+ exchanger regulatory factor family of PDZ proteins.
(Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 1998-07-21)
The Na+/H+ exchanger regulatory factor (NHERF) binds to the tail of the beta2-adrenergic
receptor and plays a role in adrenergic regulation of Na+/H+ exchange. NHERF contains
two PDZ domains, the first of which is required ...
Adrenergic receptors. Models for regulation of signal transduction processes.
(Hypertension, 1990-02)
Adrenergic receptors are prototypic models for the study of the relations between
structure and function of G protein-coupled receptors. Each receptor is encoded by
a distinct gene. These receptors are integral membrane ...
Chromosomal organization of adrenergic receptor genes.
(Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 1990-02)
The adrenergic receptors (ARs) (subtypes alpha 1, alpha 2, beta 1, and beta 2) are
a prototypic family of guanine nucleotide binding regulatory protein-coupled receptors
that mediate the physiological effects of the hormone ...
The G-protein-coupled receptor kinases beta ARK1 and beta ARK2 are widely distributed at synapses in rat brain.
(J Neurosci, 1992-10)
The beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (beta ARK) phosphorylates the agonist-occupied
beta-adrenergic receptor to promote rapid receptor uncoupling from Gs, thereby attenuating
adenylyl cyclase activity. Beta ARK-mediated receptor ...
An approach to the study of G-protein-coupled receptor kinases: an in vitro-purified membrane assay reveals differential receptor specificity and regulation by G beta gamma subunits.
(Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 1994-04-26)
Phosphorylation of GTP-binding-regulatory (G)-protein-coupled receptors by specific
G-protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) is a major mechanism responsible for agonist-mediated
desensitization of signal transduction processes. ...
Regions of the alpha 1-adrenergic receptor involved in coupling to phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis and enhanced sensitivity of biological function.
(Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 1990-04)
Regions of the hamster alpha 1-adrenergic receptor (alpha 1 AR) that are important
in GTP-binding protein (G protein)-mediated activation of phospholipase C were determined
by studying the biological functions of mutant ...
