Psychiatry related information on GNAQ

 

High impact information on GNAQ

  • However, reconstitution was not observed with cells that overexpressed G alpha q or G alpha 11 [9].
  • Further evaluation revealed that GRP-R in these cells tonically stimulated G alpha q/11, resulting in increased phospholipase C activation [10].
  • These data indicate that G alpha s, G alpha q/11, and G alpha i3 associate with Golgi membranes independent of G beta subunits and have distinctive distributions within the Golgi stack [11].
  • METHODS: We used selective antibodies to quantitate the levels of the G protein alpha subunits that regulate adenylate cyclase activity (G alpha s and G alpha i2) and phosphoinositide turnover (G alpha q/11) [12].
  • There were no significant differences in the immunolabeling of G alpha i1/2, G alpha q/11, or pertussis toxin-catalyzed [32P]ADP ribosylation in either tissue in the untreated bipolar affective disorder group compared with controls [12].
