Abstract excerpt
G protein-coupled receptor kinase-2 (GRK2) serine-phosphorylates the platelet-derived growth factor receptor-beta (PDGFRbeta), and thereby diminishes signaling by the receptor. Because activation of GRK2 may involve phosphorylation of its N-terminal tyrosines by c-Src, we tested whether the PDGFRbeta itself could tyrosine-phosphorylate and activate GRK2. To do so, we used wild type (WT) and Y857F mutant...
