Research Abstract |
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) have been well known as molecular targets for many clinically important drugs. In order to function properly at cell surface, the receptors have to be transported efficiently as receptor-signaling molecule complexes to the cell surface after the GPCRs are synthesized at ribosomes. This research identified several cellular proteins that interact with carboxy-termini of GPCRs and showed that these interacting proteins regulate the transport and the cell surface expression of the cognate GPCRs.
