G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) belong to one of the largest family of signaling receptors in the mammalian genome [1]. GPCRs elicit cellular responses to multiple diverse stimuli and play essential roles in human health and disease. GPCRs have important clinical implications in various diseases and are the targets of approximately 25–50% of all marketed drugs [2], [3]. Understanding how GPCRs are regulated is essential to delineating their role in normal physiology and in the pathophysiology of several diseases. Given the vast number and diversity of GPCRs, it is likely that multiple mechanisms exist to regulate GPCR function. While GPCR signaling is typically regulated by desensitization and endocytosis mediated by phosphorylation and β-arrestins, it can also be modulated by ubiquitination. Ubiquitination is emerging an important regulatory process that may have unique roles in governing GPCR trafficking and signaling. Recent studies have revealed a mechanistic link between GPCR phosphorylation, β-arrestins and ubiquitination that may be applicable to some GPCRs but not others. While the function of ubiquitination is generally thought to promote receptor endocytosis and endosomal sorting, recent studies have revealed that ubiquitination also plays an important role in positive regulation of GPCR signaling. Here, we will review recent developments in our understanding of how ubiquitin regulates GPCR endocytic trafficking and how it contributes to signal transduction induced by GPCR activation. 相似文献

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) represent the largest family of transmembrane signaling molecules in the human genome. As such, they interact with numerous intracellular molecules, which can act either to propagate or curtail signaling from the receptor. Their primary mode of cellular activation occurs through heterotrimeric G proteins, which in turn can activate a wide spectrum of effector molecules, including phosphodiesterases, phospholipases, adenylyl cyclases and ion channels. Active GPCRs are also the target of G protein-coupled receptor kinases, which phosphorylate the receptors culminating in the binding of the protein arrestin. This results in rapid desensitization through inhibition of G protein binding, as well as novel mechanisms of cellular activation that involve the scaffolding of cellular kinases to GPCR-arrestin complexes. Arrestins can also serve to mediate the internalization of certain GPCRs, a process which plays an important role in regulating cellular activity both by mediating long-term desensitization through down regulation (degradation) of receptors and by recycling desensitized receptors back to the cell surface to initiate additional rounds of signaling. The mechanisms that regulate the subsequent intracellular trafficking of GPCRs following internalization are largely unknown. Recently however, it has become clear that the pattern of receptor phosphorylation and subsequent binding of arrestin play a critical role in the intracellular trafficking of internalized receptors, thereby dictating the ultimate fate of the receptor. In addition, arrestins have now been shown to be required for the recycling of GPCRs that are capable of internalizing through arrestin-independent mechanisms. This review will summarize recent advances in our understanding of the roles of arrestins in post-endocytic GPCR trafficking. 相似文献

Desensitization is a physiological feedback mechanism that blocks detrimental effects of persistent stimulation. G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) was originally identified as the kinase that mediates G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) desensitization. Subsequent studies revealed that GRK is a family composed of seven isoforms (GRK1–GRK7). Each GRK shows a differential expression pattern. GRK1, GRK4, and GRK7 are expressed in limited tissues. In contrast, GRK2, GRK3, GRK5, and GRK6 are ubiquitously expressed throughout the body. The roles of GRKs in GPCR desensitization are well established. When GPCRs are activated by their agonists, GRKs phosphorylate serine/threonine residues in the intracellular loops and the carboxyl-termini of GPCRs. Phosphorylation promotes translocation of β-arrestins to the receptors and inhibits further G protein activation by interrupting receptor-G protein coupling. The binding of β-arrestins to the receptors also helps to promote receptor internalization by clathrin-coated pits. Thus, the GRK-catalyzed phosphorylation and subsequent binding of β-arrestin to GPCRs are believed to be the common mechanism of GPCR desensitization and internalization. Recent studies have revealed that GRKs are also involved in the β-arrestin-mediated signaling pathway. The GRK-mediated phosphorylation of the receptors plays opposite roles in conventional G protein- and β-arrestin-mediated signaling. The GRK-catalyzed phosphorylation of the receptors results in decreased G protein-mediated signaling, but it is necessary for β-arrestin-mediated signaling. Agonists that selectively activate GRK/β-arrestin-dependent signaling without affecting G protein signaling are known as β-arrestin-biased agonists. Biased agonists are expected to have potential therapeutic benefits for various diseases due to their selective activation of favorable physiological responses or avoidance of the side effects of drugs. Furthermore, GRKs are recognized as signaling mediators that are independent of either G protein- or β-arrestin-mediated pathways. GRKs can phosphorylate non-GPCR substrates, and this is found to be involved in various physiological responses, such as cell motility, development, and inflammation. In addition to these effects, our group revealed that GRK6 expressed in macrophages mediates the removal of apoptotic cells (engulfment) in a kinase activity-dependent manner. These studies revealed that GRKs block excess stimulus and also induce cellular responses. Here, we summarized the involvement of GRKs in β-arrestin-mediated and G protein-independent signaling pathways. 相似文献

Ubiquitin is covalently attached to substrate proteins in the form of a single ubiquitin moiety or polyubiquitin chains and has been generally linked to protein degradation, however, distinct types of ubiquitin linkages are also used to control other critical cellular processes like cell signaling. Over forty mammalian G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) have been reported to be ubiquitinated, but despite the diverse and rich complexity of GPCR signaling, ubiquitin has been largely ascribed to receptor degradation. Indeed, GPCR ubiquitination targets the receptors for degradation by lysosome, which is mediated by the Endosomal Sorting Complexes Required for Transport (ESCRT) machinery, and the proteasome. This has led to the view that ubiquitin and ESCRTs primarily function as the signal to target GPCRs for destruction. Contrary to this conventional view, studies indicate that ubiquitination of certain GPCRs and canonical ubiquitin‐binding ESCRTs are not required for receptor degradation and revealed that diverse and complex pathways exist to regulate endo‐lysosomal sorting of GPCRs. In other studies, GPCR ubiquitination has been shown to drive signaling and not receptor degradation and further revealed novel insight into the mechanisms by which GPCRs trigger the activity of the ubiquitination machinery. Here, we discuss the diverse pathways by which ubiquitin controls GPCR endo‐lysosomal sorting and beyond. 相似文献

Together with G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) kinases (GRKs) and β-arrestins, RGS proteins are the major family of molecules that control the signaling of GPCRs. The expression pattern of one of these RGS family members, RGS9-2, coincides with that of the dopamine D(3) receptor (D(3)R) in the brain, and in vivo studies have shown that RGS9-2 regulates the signaling of D2-like receptors. In this study, β-arrestin2 was found to be required for scaffolding of the intricate interactions among the dishevelled-EGL10-pleckstrin (DEP) domain of RGS9-2, Gβ5, R7-binding protein (R7BP), and D(3)R. The DEP domain of RGS9-2, under the permission of β-arrestin2, inhibited the signaling of D(3)R in collaboration with Gβ5. β-Arrestin2 competed with R7BP and Gβ5 so that RGS9-2 is placed in the cytosolic region in an open conformation which is able to inhibit the signaling of GPCRs. The affinity of the receptor protein for β-arrestin2 was a critical factor that determined the selectivity of RGS9-2 for the receptor it regulates. These results show that β-arrestins function not only as mediators of receptor-G protein uncoupling and initiators of receptor endocytosis but also as scaffolding proteins that control and coordinate the inhibitory effects of RGS proteins on the signaling of certain GPCRs. 相似文献

Members of the herpesvirus family, including human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) and Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV/HHV-8), encode G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) homologs, which strongly activate classical G protein signal transduction networks within the cell. In animal models of herpesvirus infection, the viral GPCRs appear to play physiologically important roles by enabling viral replication within tropic tissues and by promoting reactivation from latency. While a number of studies have defined intracellular signaling pathways activated by herpesviral GPCRs, it remains unclear if their physiological function is subjected to the process of desensitization as observed for cellular GPCRs. G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRK) and arrestin proteins have been recently implicated in regulating viral GPCR signaling; however, the role that these desensitization proteins play in viral GPCR function in vivo remains unknown. Here, we review what is currently known regarding viral GPCR desensitization and discuss potential biological ramifications of viral GPCR regulation by the host cell desensitization machinery. 相似文献

β-arrestins, including β-arrestin1 and β-arrestin2, are ubiquitous cytosolic proteins which localize in the cytoplasm and plasma membrane, initially be regarded as an potential character in G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) desensitization, sequestration, and internalization. Besides, recent many studies increasingly revealed that β-arrestins served widely as versatile adapter proteins for scaffolding many intracellular signaling networks to modulate the strength and duration of signaling by diverse types of receptors and downstream kinases. As we known, the biologic and clinical behaviors of many tumors are largely determined by multiple molecular signal pathways. More recently, accumulating evidences established that β-arrestins got widely involved in many cancer developmental signaling events which responsible for tumor viability and metastasis, suggesting an impressive role of β-arrestins in tumor progression. Because of the regulation and biological output of β-arrestins is so complex, the role of β-arrestins in cancer development still remains enigmatic. However, the further understanding with the clinical prognosis and oncogenic potential of β-arrestins might facilitate the identification of diagnosis biomarkers and development of drug targets in cancer. In this article, we reviewed a comprehensive summary of the β-arrestins-mediated functions in human cancers. 相似文献

The generation of cAMP by G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and its termination are currently thought to occur exclusively at the plasma membrane of cells. Under existing models of receptor regulation, this signal is primarily restricted by desensitization of the receptors through their binding to β-arrestins. However, this paradigm is not consistent with recent observations that the parathyroid hormone receptor type 1 (PTHR) continues to stimulate cAMP production even after receptor internalization, as β-arrestins are known to rapidly bind and internalize activated PTHR. Here we show that binding to β-arrestin1 prolongs rather than terminates the generation of cAMP by PTHR, and that cAMP generation correlates with the persistence of arrestin-receptor complexes on endosomes. PTHR signaling is instead turned off by the retromer complex, which regulates the movement of internalized receptor from endosomes to the Golgi apparatus. Thus, binding by the retromer complex regulates the sustained generation of cAMP triggered by an internalized GPCR. 相似文献

G protein (heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide-binding protein)-coupled receptors (GPCRs) activate numerous cellular signals through the combined actions of G proteins, GPCR kinases, and arrestins. Although arrestins have traditionally been thought of as mediating GPCR desensitization, they have now been shown to play important roles in the internalization, trafficking, and signaling of many GPCRs. We demonstrate that in cells devoid of arrestins, the stimulation of numerous GPCRs including the N-formyl peptide receptor (FPR) initiates rapid cell rounding, annexin V positivity, and caspase activation followed by cell death. The apoptotic response is initiated by G protein signaling and involves activation of phosphoinositide 3-kinase, mitogen-activated protein kinases, and c-Src resulting in cytochrome c release from mitochondria and ultimately caspase 9 and caspase 3 activation. Reconstitution with either arrestin-2 or arrestin-3 is completely sufficient to prevent FPR-mediated apoptosis. Surprisingly, a non-desensitizing and non-internalizing mutant of the FPR is unable to initiate apoptosis, indicating that receptor phosphorylation and internalization, but not solely chronic activation due to a lack of desensitization, are critical determinants for the induction of apoptosis by the FPR. We further demonstrate that this response is not unique to the FPR with numerous additional GPCRs, including the V2 vasopressin, angiotensin II (type 1A), and CXCR2 receptors, capable of initiating apoptosis upon stimulation, whereas GPCRs such as the beta(2)-adrenergic receptor and CXCR4 are not capable of initiating apoptotic signaling. These data demonstrate for the first time that arrestins play a critical and completely unexpected role in the suppression GPCR-mediated apoptosis, which we show is a common consequence of GPCR-mediated cellular activation in the absence of arrestins. 相似文献

G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) plays a fundamental role in the regulation of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), and changes in GRK2 expression levels can have an important impact on cell functions. GRK2 is known to be degraded by the proteasome pathway. We have shown previously that β-arrestins participate in enhanced kinase turnover upon GPCR stimulation by facilitating GRK2 phosphorylation by c-Src or by MAPK or by recruiting the Mdm2 E3 ubiquitin ligase to the receptor complex. In this report, we have investigated how such diverse β-arrestin scaffold functions are integrated to modulate GRK2 degradation. Interestingly, we found that in the absence of GPCR activation, β-arrestins do not perform an adaptor role for GRK2/Mdm2 association, but rather compete with GRK2 for direct Mdm2 binding to regulate basal kinase turnover. Upon agonist stimulation, β-arrestins-mediated phosphorylation of GRK2 at serine 670 by MAPK facilitates Mdm2-mediated GRK2 degradation, whereas c-Src-dependent phosphorylation would support the action of an undetermined β-arrestin-recruited ligase in the absence of GPCR activation. The ability of β-arrestins to play different scaffold functions would allow coordination of both Mdm2-dependent and -independent processes aimed at the specific modulation of GRK2 turnover in different signaling contexts. 相似文献

The heptahelical G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) family includes approximately 900 members and is the largest family of signaling receptors encoded in the mammalian genome. G protein-coupled receptors elicit cellular responses to diverse extracellular stimuli at the plasma membrane and some internalized receptors continue to signal from intracellular compartments. In addition to rapid desensitization, receptor trafficking is critical for regulation of the temporal and spatial aspects of GPCR signaling. Indeed, GPCR internalization functions to control signal termination and propagation as well as receptor resensitization. Our knowledge of the mechanisms that regulate mammalian GPCR endocytosis is based predominantly on arrestin regulation of receptors through a clathrin- and dynamin-dependent pathway. However, multiple clathrin adaptors, which recognize distinct endocytic signals, are now known to function in clathrin-mediated endocytosis of diverse cargo. Given the vast number and diversity of GPCRs, the complexity of clathrin-mediated endocytosis and the discovery of multiple clathrin adaptors, a single universal mechanism controlling endocytosis of all mammalian GPCRs is unlikely. Indeed, several recent studies now suggest that endocytosis of different GPCRs is regulated by distinct mechanisms and clathrin adaptors. In this review, we discuss the diverse mechanisms that regulate clathrin-dependent GPCR endocytosis. 相似文献

β-arrestins bind active G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and play a crucial role in receptor desensitization and internalization. The classical paradigm of arrestin function has been expanded with the identification of many non-receptor-binding partners, which indicated the multifunctional role of β-arrestins in cellular functions. To elucidate the molecular mechanism of β-arrestin-mediated signaling, the structural features of β-arrestins were investigated using X-ray crystallography and cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM). However, the intrinsic conformational flexibility of β-arrestins hampers the elucidation of structural interactions between β-arrestins and their binding partners using conventional structure determination tools. Therefore, structural information obtained using complementary structure analysis techniques would be necessary in combination with X-ray crystallography and cryo-EM data. In this review, we describe how β-arrestins interact with their binding partners from a structural point of view, as elucidated by both traditional methods (X-ray crystallography and cryo-EM) and complementary structure analysis techniques. 相似文献

Termination of signaling of activated G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) is essential for maintenance of cellular homeostasis. It is well established that β-arrestin redistributes to phosphorylated GPCRs and thereby facilitates desensitization of classical G protein-dependent signaling. β-Arrestin in turn serves as a scaffold to initiate a second wave of signaling. Here, we report a molecular mechanism that regulates the termination of unconventional β-arrestin-dependent GPCR signaling. We identify protein phosphatase 1β (PP1β) as a phosphatase for the cluster of phosphorylated threonines ((353)TTETQRT(359)) within the sst(2A) somatostatin receptor carboxyl terminus that mediates β-arrestin binding using siRNA knock-down screening. We show that PP1β-mediated sst(2A) dephosphorylation is initiated directly after receptor activation at or near the plasma membrane. As a functional consequence of diminished PP1β activity, we find that somatostatin- and substance P-induced but not epidermal growth factor-induced ERK activation was aberrantly enhanced and prolonged. Thus, we demonstrate a novel mechanism for fine tuning unconventional β-arrestin-dependent GPCR signaling in that recruitment of PP1β to activated GPCRs facilitates GPCR dephosphorylation and, hence, leads to disruption of the β-arrestin-GPCR complex. 相似文献

Classically, G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) relay signals by directly activating heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins). Increasing evidence indicates that GPCRs may also signal through G protein-independent pathways. JAK/STATs, Src-family tyrosine kinases, GRKs/beta-arrestins, and PDZ domain-containing proteins have been suggested to directly relay signals from GPCRs independent of G proteins. In addition, our laboratory recently reported that the beta(2) adrenergic receptor (beta(2)AR) could switch from G protein-coupled to G protein-independent ERK (extracellular signal-regulated kinase) activation in an agonist dosage-dependent manner. This finding provides a novel mechanism for G protein-independent GPCR signaling. This review focuses on recent progress in understanding the mechanisms by which G protein-independent GPCR signaling occurs. 相似文献

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) mediate diverse signaling processes, including olfaction. G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) are important regulators of G protein signal transduction that specifically phosphorylate activated GPCRs to terminate signaling. Despite previously described roles for GRKs in GPCR signal downregulation, animals lacking C. elegans G protein-coupled receptor kinase-2 (Ce-grk-2) function are not hypersensitive to odorants. Instead, decreased Ce-grk-2 function in adult sensory neurons profoundly disrupts chemosensation, based on both behavioral analysis and Ca(2+) imaging. Although mammalian arrestin proteins cooperate with GRKs in receptor desensitization, loss of C. elegans arrestin-1 (arr-1) does not disrupt chemosensation. Either overexpression of the C. elegans Galpha subunit odr-3 or loss of eat-16, which encodes a regulator of G protein signaling (RGS) protein, restores chemosensation in Ce-grk-2 mutants. These results demonstrate that loss of GRK function can lead to reduced GPCR signal transduction and suggest an important role for RGS proteins in the regulation of chemosensation. 相似文献

The sorting of G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs) to lysosomes is critical for proper signaling and cellular responses. We previously showed that the adaptor protein ALIX regulates lysosomal degradation of protease-activated receptor-1 (PAR1), a GPCR for thrombin, independent of ubiquitin-binding ESCRTs and receptor ubiquitination. However, the mechanisms that regulate ALIX function during PAR1 lysosomal sorting are not known. Here we show that the mammalian α-arrestin arrestin domain–containing protein-3 (ARRDC3) regulates ALIX function in GPCR sorting via ubiquitination. ARRDC3 colocalizes with ALIX and is required for PAR1 sorting at late endosomes and degradation. Depletion of ARRDC3 by small interfering RNA disrupts ALIX interaction with activated PAR1 and the CHMP4B ESCRT-III subunit, suggesting that ARRDC3 regulates ALIX activity. We found that ARRDC3 is required for ALIX ubiquitination induced by activation of PAR1. A screen of nine mammalian NEDD4-family E3 ubiquitin ligases revealed a critical role for WWP2. WWP2 interacts with ARRDC3 and not ALIX. Depletion of WWP2 inhibited ALIX ubiquitination and blocked ALIX interaction with activated PAR1 and CHMP4B. These findings demonstrate a new role for the α-arrestin ARRDC3 and the E3 ubiquitin ligase WWP2 in regulation of ALIX ubiquitination and lysosomal sorting of GPCRs. 相似文献

Signaling by protease-activated receptor-1 (PAR1), a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) for thrombin, is regulated by desensitization and internalization. PAR1 desensitization is mediated by β-arrestins, like most classic GPCRs. In contrast, internalization of PAR1 occurs through a clathrin- and dynamin-dependent pathway independent of β-arrestins. PAR1 displays two modes of internalization. Constitutive internalization of unactivated PAR1 is mediated by the clathrin adaptor protein complex-2 (AP-2), where the μ2-adaptin subunit binds directly to a tyrosine-based motif localized within the receptor C-tail domain. However, AP-2 depletion only partially inhibits agonist-induced internalization of PAR1, suggesting a function for other clathrin adaptors in this process. Here, we now report that AP-2 and epsin-1 are both critical mediators of agonist-stimulated PAR1 internalization. We show that ubiquitination of PAR1 and the ubiquitin-interacting motifs of epsin-1 are required for epsin-1-dependent internalization of activated PAR1. In addition, activation of PAR1 promotes epsin-1 de-ubiquitination, which may increase its endocytic adaptor activity to facilitate receptor internalization. AP-2 also regulates activated PAR1 internalization via recognition of distal C-tail phosphorylation sites rather than the canonical tyrosine-based motif. Thus, AP-2 and epsin-1 are both required to promote efficient internalization of activated PAR1 and recognize discrete receptor sorting signals. This study defines a new pathway for internalization of mammalian GPCRs. 相似文献

Regulation of tyrosine kinase cascades by G-protein-coupled receptors 总被引:22,自引:0,他引:22
Mitogenic signaling by G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) involves tyrosine phosphorylation of adaptor proteins and assembly of multiprotein Ras activation complexes. Over the past three years, three types of scaffolds for GPCR-directed complex assembly have been identified: transactivated receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), integrin-based focal adhesions, and GPCRs themselves. Nonreceptor tyrosine kinases play an important role in each case. The processes of GPCR desensitization and sequestration via clathrin-coated pits are also involved in signaling through the RTK- and GPCR-based scaffolds. 相似文献

ALIX binds a YPX(3)L motif of the GPCR PAR1 and mediates ubiquitin-independent ESCRT-III/MVB sorting
Dores MR Chen B Lin H Soh UJ Paing MM Montagne WA Meerloo T Trejo J 《The Journal of cell biology》2012,197(3):407-419
The sorting of signaling receptors to lysosomes is an essential regulatory process in mammalian cells. During degradation, receptors are modified with ubiquitin and sorted by endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT)-0, -I, -II, and -III complexes into intraluminal vesicles (ILVs) of multivesicular bodies (MVBs). However, it remains unclear whether a single universal mechanism mediates MVB sorting of all receptors. We previously showed that protease-activated receptor 1 (PAR1), a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) for thrombin, is internalized after activation and sorted to lysosomes independent of ubiquitination and the ubiquitin-binding ESCRT components hepatocyte growth factor-regulated tyrosine kinase substrate and Tsg101. In this paper, we report that PAR1 sorted to ILVs of MVBs through an ESCRT-III-dependent pathway independent of ubiquitination. We further demonstrate that ALIX, a charged MVB protein 4-ESCRT-III interacting protein, bound to a YPX(3)L motif of PAR1 via its central V domain to mediate lysosomal degradation. This study reveals a novel MVB/lysosomal sorting pathway for signaling receptors that bypasses the requirement for ubiquitination and ubiquitin-binding ESCRTs and may be applicable to a subset of GPCRs containing YPX(n)L motifs. 相似文献
