Abstract excerpt
G proteins interact with effectors at multiple sites and regulate their activity. The functional significance of multiple contact points is not well understood. We previously identified three residues on distinct surfaces of Gbetagamma that are crucial for G protein-coupled inward rectifier K(+) (GIRK) channel activation. Here we show that mutations at these sites, S67K, S98T, and T128F, abolished or reduced...
