BACKGROUND Analysis of gene expression at the mRNA level, using real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), mandatorily requires reference genes (RGs) as internal controls. However, increasing evidences have shown that RG expression may vary considerably under experimental conditions. We sought for an appropriate panel of RGs to be used in the 3T3-L1 cell l...
Regulators of G protein signaling (RGS) proteins bind to the alpha subunits of certain heterotrimeric G proteins and greatly enhance their rate of GTP hydrolysis, thereby determining the time course of interactions among Galpha, Gbetagamma, and their effectors. Voltage-gated N-type Ca channels mediate neurosecretion, and these Ca channels are powerfully inhibited by G proteins. To determine whe...
Introduction The Marine Biotechnology (MB) research area is gaining increasing relevance in Brazil. Its analysis is a challenge owing to the inherently multidisciplinary nature, and the study of research groups (RGs) may support this work. The task of analysing RGs is facilitated in Brazil, which has a national source gathering the country's RGs, maintained by the National Council for Scientifi...
Heterotrimeric G proteins of the G12 family regulate the Rho GTPase through RhoGEFs that contain an amino-terminal regulator of G protein signaling (RGS) domain (RGS-RhoGEFs). Direct regulation of the activity of RGS-RhoGEFs p115 or leukemia-associated RhoGEF (LARG) by Galpha13 has previously been demonstrated. However, the precise biochemical mechanism by which Galpha13 stimulates the RhoGEF a...
We identified regulator of G-protein signaling-5 (RGS-5) as an angiogenic pericyte marker at sites of physiologic and pathologic angiogenesis. In a mouse model of pancreatic islet cell carcinogenesis, RGS-5 is specifically induced in the vasculature of premalignant lesions during the "angiogenic switch" and further elevated in tumor vessels. Similarly, RGS-5 is overexpressed in highly angiogeni...
Regulators of G-protein signaling (RGS) proteins are important components of signal transduction pathways initiated through G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). RGS proteins accelerate the intrinsic GTPase activity of G-protein alpha-subunits (Galpha) and thus shorten the time course and reduce the magnitude of G-protein alpha- and betagamma-subunit signaling. Inhibiting RGS action has been pro...
RGS-PX1 (also known as sorting nexin 13) is a member of both the regulator of G protein signaling (RGS) and sorting nexin (SNX) protein families. Biochemical and cell culture studies have shown that RGS-PX1/SNX13 attenuates Galphas-mediated signaling through its RGS domain and regulates endocytic trafficking and degradation of the epidermal growth factor receptor. To understand the functions of...
Known RGS proteins stimulate GTPase activity of Gi and Gq family members, but do not interact with Gsalpha and G12alpha. To determine the role of specific Galpha residues for RGS protein recognition, six RGS contact residues of chimeric transducin alpha-subunit (Gtalpha) corresponding to the residues that differ between Gialpha and Gsalpha have been replaced by Gsalpha residues. The ability of ...
Changes in gene expression patterns can reflect the adaptation of organisms to divergent environments. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) is an important tool for ecological adaptation studies at the gene expression level. The quality of the results of qRT-PCR analysis largely depends on the availability of reliable reference genes (RGs). To date, reliable RGs have not been determined for ada...
G protein signaling in the retina is crucially regulated by the R7 family of regulators of G protein signaling (RGS) proteins, which act to stimulate the rate of G protein inactivation. Recent findings indicate that R7 RGS proteins form complexes with two newly identified membrane anchors: RGS9 Anchor Protein (R9AP) and R7 Binding Protein (R7BP), which play essential roles in modulating the exp...
