Journal ArticleDOI

Receptor-independent activators of heterotrimeric g-protein signaling pathways

TL;DR: AGS proteins provide unexpected mechanisms for input to heterotrimeric G-protein signaling pathways and may also serve as novel binding partners for Gα and Gβγ that allow the subunits to subserve functions that do not require initialheterotrimer formation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The State of the Art: Atrial Fibrillation Epidemiology, Prevention, and Treatment.

TL;DR: This "state-of-the-art" review provides a comprehensive update on the understanding of AF in the world today, contemporary therapeutic options, and directions of ongoing and future study.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selective Interaction of AGS3 with G-proteins and the Influence of AGS3 on the Activation State of G-proteins

TL;DR: AGS3 and related proteins provide unexpected mechanisms for coordination of G-protein signaling pathways and provide an initial approach to define the role of AGS3 in mammalian signal processing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stabilization of the GDP-bound conformation of Gialpha by a peptide derived from the G-protein regulatory motif of AGS3.

TL;DR: The AGS3-GPR motif presents an opportunity for selective control of Giα- and Gβγ−regulated effector systems, and the GPR motif allows for alternative modes of signal input to G-protein signaling systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

AGS3 Inhibits GDP Dissociation from Gα Subunits of the Gi Family and Rhodopsin-dependent Activation of Transducin *

TL;DR: The results suggest that proteins containing GPR motifs, in addition to their potential role as G protein-coupled receptor-independent activators of Gβγ signaling pathways, act as GDP dissociation inhibitors and negatively regulate the activation of a G protein by a Gprotein-cOUpled receptor.
