Abstract excerpt
beta-Arrestins bind agonist-activated G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and mediate their desensitization and internalization. Although beta-arrestins dissociate from some receptors at the plasma membrane, such as the beta2 adrenergic receptor, they remain associated with other GPCRs and internalize with them into endocytic vesicles. Formation of stable receptor-beta-arrestin complexes that persist inside the...
