Title: Tales from the crypt: evidence for heptahelical receptor signaling in the endocytic pathway. Author: Whistler J, Beattie E, von Zastrow M. Journal: Sci STKE; 2000 Aug 29; 2000(47):pe1. PubMed ID: 11752604. Abstract: In certain circumstances, internalized receptors are able to continue signaling after endocytosis. Whistler et al. discuss how the interaction of heterotrimeric GTP-binding protein (G protein)-coupled receptors with arrestins and their subsequent endocytosis may contribute to activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway. This perspective delves into the role that scaffolds may play in organizing and specifying downstream signaling events that occur after internalization of G protein-coupled receptors.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
