β1-Adrenergic Receptor Association with PSD-95 INHIBITION OF RECEPTOR INTERNALIZATION AND FACILITATION OF β1-ADRENERGIC RECEPTOR INTERACTION WITHN-METHYL-d-ASPARTATE RECEPTORS
Liaoyuan A. Hu,Yuting Tang,William E. Miller,Mei Cong,Anthony G. Lau,Robert J. Lefkowitz,Randy A. Hall +6 more
TL;DR: Data reveal that PSD-95 is a specificβ1AR binding partner that modulates β1AR function and facilitates physical association of the β1 AR with synaptic proteins, such as theN-methyl-d-aspartate receptors, which are known to be regulated by β1ar stimulation.

Protein Kinase A and G Protein-coupled Receptor Kinase Phosphorylation Mediates β-1 Adrenergic Receptor Endocytosis through Different Pathways

TL;DR: PKA-mediated phosphorylation can trigger agonist-induced internalization of the β1AR and the pathway selected forβ1AR internalization is primarily determined by the kinase that phosphorylates the receptor, i.e. PKA- mediated phosphorylated directs internalization via a caveolae pathway, whereas GRK-mediatedosphorylation directs it through clathrin-coated pits.
INHIBITION OF RECEPTOR INTERNALIZATION AND FACILITATION OF b1-ADRENERGIC RECEPTOR INTERACTION WITH N-METHYL-D-ASPARTATE RECEPTORS*
Liaoyuan A. Hu,Yuting Tang,William E. Miller,Mei Cong,Anthony G. Laui,Robert J. Lefkowitz,Randy A. Halli +6 more
TL;DR: Data reveal that PSD-95 is a specific b1AR binding partner that modulates b1ar function and facilitates physical association of the b1 AR with synaptic proteins, such as the N-methyl-Daspartate receptors, which are known to be regulated by b1Ar stimulation.
