Summary
GRK3 (G protein-coupled receptor kinase 3, HGNC:290) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 22q12.1, encoding G protein-coupled receptor kinase 3 (P35626). receptors.
The beta-adrenergic receptor kinase specifically phosphorylates the agonist-occupied form of the beta-adrenergic and related G protein-coupled receptors. Overall, the beta adrenergic receptor kinase 2 has 85% amino acid similarity with beta adrenergic receptor kinase 1, with the protein kinase catalytic domain having 95% similarity. These data suggest the existence of a family of receptor kinases which may serve broadly to regulate receptor function.
