Gene information for ADRBK1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID156
Official gene symbolADRBK1
Full nameadrenergic, beta, receptor kinase 1
Aliases,BARK1,BETA-ARK1,FLJ16718,GRK2,
Gene summaryThe product of this gene phosphorylates the beta-2-adrenergic receptor and appears to mediate agonist-specific desensitization observed at high agonist concentrations. This protein is an ubiquitous cytosolic enzyme that specifically phosphorylates the activated form of the beta-adrenergic and related G-protein-coupled receptors. Abnormal coupling of beta-adrenergic receptor to G protein is involved in the pathogenesis of the failing heart. [provided by RefSeq]
