Abstract excerpt
G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) are a family of serine/threonine kinases that phosphorylate many activated G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and play an important role in GPCR desensitization. Our previous work has demonstrated that the C-terminal conserved region (CC) of GRK-2 participates in interaction with rhodopsin and that this interaction is necessary for GRK-2-mediated receptor phosphorylation...
