G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) have been found to trigger G protein-independent signalling. However, the regulation of G protein-independent pathways, especially their desensitization, is poorly characterized. Here, we show that the G protein-independent 5-HT(4) receptor (5-HT(4)R)-operated Src/ERK (extracellular signal-regulated kinase) pathway, but not the G(s) pathway, is inhibited by GPCR kinase 5 (GRK5), physically associated with the proximal region of receptor' C-terminus in both hum ...[more]
