G protein-coupled receptor kinase 4γ interacts with inactive Gαs and Gα13

Abstract: G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are regulated by multiple families of kinases including GPCR kinases (GRKs). GRK4 is constitutively active towards GPCRs, and polymorphisms of GRK4γ are linked to hypertension. We examined, through co-immunoprecipitation, the interactions between GRK4γ and the Gα and Gβ subunits of heterotrimeric G proteins. Because GRK4 has been shown to inhibit Gα s -coupled GPCR signaling and lacks a PH domain, we hypothesized that GRK4γ would interact with active Gα s , but not Gβ. Surpr… Show more

“…For example, GRK4 has constitutive activity under basal conditions, which may, in part, be due to its ability to bind to inactive Gα S and Gα 13 subunits. 31 It is the only GRK subtype that is capable of phosphorylating unstimulated GPCRs. 32 GRK4 is expressed in a limited number of tissues, e.g., artery, bone, cerebellum, heart, kidney, myometrium, small intestines, and testes, unlike GRK2, GRK3, GRK5, and GRK6, which are ubiquitously expressed.…”

“…GRK4 is constitutively active which may be due to its ability to bind to inactive G α S and Gβ subunits (319). Unlike the other GRKs, GRK4 has several splice variants; four ( α , β, γ, and δ ) have been reported in humans, five (A, B, C, D, E) in rats, and one in mice (493,494,527,537,637).…”
