GRK 6 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Target Background

This gene encodes a member of the guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G protein)-coupled receptor kinase subfamily of the Ser/Thr protein kinase family. The protein phosphorylates the activated forms of G protein-coupled receptors thus initiating their deactivation. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],catalytic activity:ATP + [G-protein-coupled receptor] = ADP + [G-protein-coupled receptor] phosphate.,function:Specifically phosphorylates the activated forms of G protein-coupled receptors.,PTM:It is uncertain whether palmitoylation is on Cys-561 and/or Cys-562 and/or Cys-565.,similarity:Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily.,similarity:Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. AGC Ser/Thr protein kinase family. GPRK subfamily.,similarity:Contains 1 AGC-kinase C-terminal domain.,similarity:Contains 1 protein kinase domain.,similarity:Contains 1 RGS domain.,tissue specificity:Widely expressed.,
