GRK4 - G protein-coupled receptor kinase 4 Gene

Also Known as IT11; GPRK4; GRK4a; GPRK2L

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 2868

About GRK4

Cytogenetic location: 4p16.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 4:2,963,571-3,040,760 (from NCBI)

This gene has 10 transcripts (splice variants), 187 orthologues and 7 paralogues. Biased expression in testis (RPKM 14.6) and brain (RPKM 0.7).

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G protein)-coupled receptor kinase subfamily of the Ser/Thr protein kinase family. The protein phosphorylates the activated forms of G protein-coupled receptors thus initiating its deactivation. This gene has been linked to both genetic and acquired hypertension. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2013]
