Abstract excerpt
We previously demonstrated that the alpha2B-adrenergic receptor mutant, in which the F(x)6IL motif in the membrane-proximal carboxyl terminus were mutated to alanines (alpha2B-ARm), is deficient in export from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). In this report, we determined if alpha2B-ARm could modulate transport from the ER to the cell surface and signaling of its wild-type counterpart. Transient expression of...
