Role of β-Arrestin in Mediating Agonist-Promoted G Protein-Coupled Receptor Internalization

Abstract: beta-Arrestins are proteins that bind phosphorylated heterotrimeric GTP-binding protein (G protein)-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and contribute to the desensitization of GPCRs by uncoupling the signal transduction process. Resensitization of GPCR responsiveness involves agonist-mediated receptor sequestration. Overexpression of beta-arrestins in human embryonic kidney cells rescued the sequestration of beta 2-adrenergic receptor (beta 2AR) mutants defective in their ability to sequester, an effect enhanced by sim… Show more

“…SDF-1 binding results in the internalization of CXCR4 and phosphorylation facilitates this process but is not absolutely required. In the case of ␤2-adrenergic receptors, phosphorylation by receptor kinases was shown to enhance the arrestin-dependent internalization (43). PKC activation by PMA also induced sequestration of CXCR4 which was completely dependent on the presence of cytoplasmic tail.…”

“…Desensitization of GPCR-mediated signal transduction is mediated through an impairment of the receptor's ability to activate its corresponding G-protein and is carried out principally through the combined activity of two classes of proteins; G-protein-coupled serine/threonine receptor kinases (GRKs) and arrestins (reviewed in Freedman and Lefkowitz, 1996). While the role of GRKs and arrestins in desensitization pathways has been well established, it is likely that they are also intimately involved in GPCR internalization (sequestration), which is an integral component of GPCR resensitization (Ferguson et al, 1996). In D. melanogaster, mutations in two visual system arrestin genes (arr1 and arr2) have been shown to inactivate rhodopsin in vivo (Dolph et al, 1993).…”

“…Recent evidence suggests that arrestins are involved in agonistmediated receptor endocytosis [179]. Overexpression of β-arrestin-1\2 rescues agonist-mediated internalization of an internalization-defective mutant of the β # -AR, and overexpression of a dominant-negative β-arrestin mutant inhibits agonist-induced internalization of the β # -AR.…”
