We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.

Function

GBB1_HUMAN Guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) are involved as a modulator or transducer in various transmembrane signaling systems. The beta and gamma chains are required for the GTPase activity, for replacement of GDP by GTP, and for G protein-effector interaction.^[1]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) modulate every aspect of physiological functions mainly through activating heterotrimeric G proteins. A majority of GPCRs promiscuously couple to multiple G protein subtypes. Here we validate that in addition to the well-known G(i/o) pathway, somatostatin receptor 2 and 5 (SSTR2 and SSTR5) couple to the G(q/11) pathway and show that smaller ligands preferentially activate the G(i/o) pathway. We further determined cryo-electron microscopy structures of the SSTR2âG(o) and SSTR2âG(q) complexes bound to octreotide and SST-14. Structural and functional analysis revealed that G protein selectivity of SSTRs is not only determined by structural elements in the receptor-G protein interface, but also by the conformation of the agonist-binding pocket. Accordingly, smaller ligands fail to stabilize a broader agonist-binding pocket of SSTRs that is required for efficient G(q/11) coupling but not G(i/o) coupling. Our studies facilitate the design of drugs with selective G protein signaling to improve therapeutic efficacy.
