Abstract excerpt
The beta(1)-adrenergic receptor (beta(1)AR) is the predominant betaAR in the heart, mediating the catecholamine-stimulated increase in cardiac rate and force of contraction. Regulation of this important G protein-coupled receptor is nevertheless poorly understood. We describe here the biosynthetic profile of the human beta(1)AR and reveal novel features relevant to its regulation using an inducible heterologous...
