More information in Books or on

Definition: A family of serine-threonine kinases that are specific for G-PROTEIN-COUPLED RECEPTORS. They are regulatory proteins that play a role in G-protein-coupled receptor densensitization.

Examples beta-Adrenergic Receptor Kinases; G-Protein-Coupled Receptor Kinase 1; G-Protein-Coupled Receptor Kinase 4; G-Protein-Coupled Receptor Kinase 5

Other names Receptor Kinases, G-Protein-Coupled; Kinases, G-Protein-Coupled Receptor; G Protein Coupled Receptor Kinases
