How can you use “gqα” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
A recent report seems to have clarified this issue: RGS4 must bind not only Gqα but also selected Gq-coupled receptors before it can inhibit receptor signaling [ 47 48 ] . Based on this finding, we propose that RGS3's binding to the GnRH receptor as well as to Gqα accounts for its specific inhibiting of GnRH receptor signaling.
The determination of RGS specificity for receptor-G protein pairs are currently unknown; i.e., we and others have found that several RGSs interact with Gqα but only one, RGS3, has potent inhibitory activity on GnRH receptor signaling.
As evidenced earlier, the molecular locus of RGS protein action is thought to be the G protein α subunit, specifically Gqα in the case of GnRH receptor activation.
Significant (p < 0.05) amounts of Gi2α, Gi1α, Goα, and Gsα also were bound but were not as high as Gqα, Gzα, and Gi3α.
More Gqα was bound by RGS3 than any other protein, although its binding was not significantly different from that of Gzα and Giα (p > 0.05).
