Abstract excerpt
A single base mutation in the Gαi2 protein (G184S) renders this Gα subunit insensitive to the negative modulatory effects of Regulator of G-protein Signaling (RGS) proteins. Mice expressing this RGS insensitive (RGSi) variant of Gαi2 (RGSi Gαi2) display a spontaneous antidepressant-like phenotype that is reversible by treatment with the 5-HT1A receptor (5-HT1AR) antagonist WAY100635. Here we test the hypothesis...
