Abstract excerpt
There is accumulating evidence that G protein-coupled receptor signaling is regulated by localization in lipid raft microdomains. In this report, we determined that the D1 dopamine receptor (D1R) is localized in caveolae, a subset of lipid rafts, by sucrose gradient fractionation and confocal microscopy. Through coimmunoprecipitation and bioluminescence resonance energy transfer assays, we demonstrated that this...
