  • G Protein-Coupled Receptors
    G PROTEIN-COUPLED RECEPTORS Overview:- The completion of the Human Genome Project allowed the identification of a large family of proteins with a common motif of seven groups of 20-24 hydrophobic amino acids arranged as α-helices. Approximately 800 of these seven transmembrane (7TM) receptors have been identified of which over 300 are non-olfactory receptors (see Frederikson et al., 2003; Lagerstrom and Schioth, 2008). Subdivision on the basis of sequence homology allows the definition of rhodopsin, secretin, adhesion, glutamate and Frizzled receptor families. NC-IUPHAR recognizes Classes A, B, and C, which equate to the rhodopsin, secretin, and glutamate receptor families. The nomenclature of 7TM receptors is commonly used interchangeably with G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR), although the former nomenclature recognises signalling of 7TM receptors through pathways not involving G proteins. For example, adiponectin and membrane progestin receptors have some sequence homology to 7TM receptors but signal independently of G-proteins and appear to reside in membranes in an inverted fashion compared to conventional GPCR. Additionally, the NPR-C natriuretic peptide receptor has a single transmembrane domain structure, but appears to couple to G proteins to generate cellular responses. The 300+ non-olfactory GPCR are the targets for the majority of drugs in clinical usage (Overington et al., 2006), although only a minority of these receptors are exploited therapeutically. Signalling through GPCR is enacted by the activation of heterotrimeric GTP-binding proteins (G proteins), made up of α, β and γ subunits, where the α and βγ subunits are responsible for signalling. The α subunit (tabulated below) allows definition of one series of signalling cascades and allows grouping of GPCRs to suggest common cellular, tissue and behavioural responses.

  • Globin Gene Expression in Correlation with G Protein-Related Genes During
    Čokić et al. BMC Genomics 2013, 14:116 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2164/14/116 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Globin gene expression in correlation with G protein-related genes during erythroid differentiation Vladan P Čokić1*, Reginald D Smith2, Angélique Biancotto3, Constance T Noguchi4, Raj K Puri5 and Alan N Schechter4 Abstract Background: The guanine nucleotide binding protein (G protein)-coupled receptors (GPCRs) regulate cell growth, proliferation and differentiation. G proteins are also implicated in erythroid differentiation, and some of them are expressed principally in hematopoietic cells. GPCRs-linked NO/cGMP and p38 MAPK signaling pathways already demonstrated potency for globin gene stimulation. By analyzing erythroid progenitors, derived from hematopoietic cells through in vitro ontogeny, our study intends to determine early markers and signaling pathways of globin gene regulation and their relation to GPCR expression. Results: Human hematopoietic CD34+ progenitors are isolated from fetal liver (FL), cord blood (CB), adult bone marrow (BM), peripheral blood (PB) and G-CSF stimulated mobilized PB (mPB), and then differentiated in vitro into erythroid progenitors. We find that growth capacity is most abundant in FL- and CB-derived erythroid cells. The erythroid progenitor cells are sorted as 100% CD71+, but we did not find statistical significance in the variations of CD34, CD36 and GlyA antigens and that confirms similarity in maturation of studied ontogenic periods. During ontogeny, beta-globin gene expression reaches maximum levels in cells of adult blood origin (176 fmol/μg), while gamma-globin gene expression is consistently up-regulated in CB-derived cells (60 fmol/μg). During gamma-globin induction by hydroxycarbamide, we identify stimulated GPCRs (PTGDR, PTGER1) and GPCRs-coupled genes known to be activated via the cAMP/PKA (ADIPOQ), MAPK pathway (JUN) and NO/cGMP (PRPF18) signaling pathways.

However, several deviations from canonical signaling pathways for GPCR GPCRs have been described. It is now clear that GPCRs can engage with multiple G proteins and the line between Gprotein cognate and non-cognate signaling is increasingly blurred.

Uversky2,4 Received: 5 August 2019 / Revised: 5 August 2019 / Accepted: 12 August 2019 / Published online: 19 August 2019 © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2019 Abstract GPCR–G protein signaling system recognizes a multitude of extracellular ligands and triggers a variety of intracellular signal- ing cascades in response. In humans, this system includes more than 800 various GPCRs and a large set of heterotrimeric G proteins. Complexity of this system goes far beyond a multitude of pair-wise ligand–GPCR and GPCR–G protein interactions. In fact, one GPCR can recognize more than one extracellular signal and interact with more than one G protein. Furthermore, one ligand can activate more than one GPCR, and multiple GPCRs can couple to the same G protein. This defnes an intricate multifunctionality of this important signaling system. Here, we show that the multifunctionality of GPCR–G protein system represents an illustrative example of the protein structure–function continuum, where structures of the involved proteins represent a complex mosaic of diferently folded regions (foldons, non-foldons, unfoldons, semi-foldons, and inducible foldons). The functionality of resulting highly dynamic conformational ensembles is fne-tuned by various post-translational modifcations and alternative splicing, and such ensembles can undergo dramatic changes at interaction with their specifc partners.

In most livestock herds, an important issue is controlling the increase in inbreeding coefficient. While this remains a large motive to genotype, producers are often unaware of the other benefits that genotyping could bring. The aim of this study was to demonstrate that SNP chips could be used as an effective herd management tool by utilizing a population of Italian Holstein-Friesian cattle. After filtering, the total number 643 Rev Mex Cienc Pecu 2019;10(3):643-663 of animals and SNPs retained for analyses were 44 and 27,365, respectively. The principal component analyses (PCA) were able to identify a sire and origin-of-sire effect within the herd, while determining that sires do not influence individual genomic selection index values. The inbreeding coefficients calculated from genotypes (FIS) provided a glimpse into the herd’s heterozygosity and determined that the genetic variability is being well maintained.

Methods Bioinformatic analyses were conducted to predict target genes and carry out enrichment analysis. Validated downstream genes of hsa-miR-18a were obtained from PubMed database. Differential expression analysis was conducted within the “edgeR” R package based on the TCGA datasets. Survival analysis was performed by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. All the visualizations were implemented by R. Results Bioinformatic analysis obtained a total of 90 target genes of hsa-miR-18a and revealed that target genes were involved in pathways essential for cancer onset and development such as cell cycle and PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Identification of a multisubunit E3 ubiquitin ligase required for heterotrimeric G-protein beta-subunit ubiquitination and cAMP signaling A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Molecular Biology by Brian Daniel Young 2018 © Copyright by Brian Daniel Young 2018 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Identification of a multisubunit E3 ubiquitin ligase required for heterotrimeric G-protein beta-subunit ubiquitination and cAMP signaling by Brian Daniel Young Doctor of Philosophy in Molecular Biology University of California, Los Angeles, 2018 Professor James Akira Wohlschlegel, Chair GPCRs are stimulated by extracellular ligands and initiate a range of intracellular signaling events through heterotrimeric G-proteins. Upon activation, G-protein α- subunits (Gα) and the stable βγ-subunit dimer (Gβγ) bind and alter the activity of diverse effectors. These signaling events are fundamental and subject to multiple layers of regulation. In this study, we used an unbiased proteomic mass spectrometry approach to uncover novel regulators of Gβγ. We identified a subfamily of potassium channel tetramerization domain (KCTD) proteins that specifically bind Gβγ. Several KCTD proteins are substrate adaptor proteins for CUL3–RING E3 ubiquitin ligases. Our studies revealed that a KCTD2-KCTD5 hetero-oligomer associates with CUL3 through KCTD5 subunits and recruits Gβγ through both subunits. Using in vitro ubiquitination reactions, we demonstrated that these KCTD proteins promote monoubiquitination of lysine-23 within Gβ1/2. This ubiquitin modification of Gβ1/2 is also observed in human ii cells and is dependent on these substrate adaptor proteins. Because these KCTD proteins bind Gβγ in response to G-protein activation, we investigated their role in GPCR signaling.
