What's a GeneRIF?

Phosphorylation of RGS regulates MAP kinase localization and promotes completion of cytokinesis.
Title: Phosphorylation of RGS regulates MAP kinase localization and promotes completion of cytokinesis.
Results suggest that the G-protein-coupled receptor, Ste2 binds the inhibitory G-protein signaling, Sst2 forming a complex with antagonistic functions.
Title: Yeast GPCR signaling reflects the fraction of occupied receptors, not the number.
Results reveal that a regulator of G protein signaling can also regulate the G protein-coupled receptor. Whereas Sst2 negatively regulates G protein signaling, it acts in a positive manner to promote receptor retention at the growing edge.
Title: Modulation of receptor dynamics by the regulator of G protein signaling Sst2.
Sst2 limits variability in transcription and morphogenesis in response to pheromone stimulation.
Title: Cellular noise suppression by the regulator of G protein signaling Sst2.
These findings suggest that Sst2 is the principal regulator of Gpa1-mediated signaling in vivo but that other proteins also contribute in distinct ways to pathway regulation.
Title: Genome-scale analysis reveals Sst2 as the principal regulator of mating pheromone signaling in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
We demonstrate that DEP domains in Sst2 mediate binding to its cognate GPCR (Ste2). DEP-domain-mediated tethering promotes downregulation by placing the RGS protein in proximity to its substrate.
Title: DEP-domain-mediated regulation of GPCR signaling responses.
