Abstract excerpt
Leukotriene B4 (LTB4) activates the G-protein-coupled receptor leukotriene B4 receptor 1 (BLT1) to mediate a diverse array of cellular responses in leukocytes including chemotaxis, calcium mobilization, degranulation, and gene expression. To determine the role of phosphorylation in BLT1 regulation, we generated mutants of BLT1 in which all of the serine/threonine residues in the C-tail are converted to alanine or...
