G Protein-coupled Receptor Kinase (GRK)

G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) are a family of serine/threonine kinases that phosphorylate agonist-bound, or activated, G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) as their primary substrates. On the basis of their sequence homology, GRKs can be subclassified into three groups: the visual subfamily (GRK1 and GRK7), the GRK4 subfamily (GRK4, GRK5 and GRK6) and the β-AR kinase (βARK) subfamily (GRK2 and GRK3). GRK1 and GRK7 are primarily expressed in retinal photoreceptor cells, whereas GRK4 is most abundantly expressed in the testes. GRK2, GRK3 and GRK5 are ubiquitously expressed, albeit to various extents in different tissues. In the heart, GRK2 and GRK5 are most prominent, whereas GRK3 and GRK6 are expressed at low levels. Functionally, all GRKs mediate the uncoupling and internalization of activated GPCRs. All GRKs are primarily localized to the cytosol and plasma membrane. GRK1, GRK4, GRK5, GRK6 and GRK7 are basally localized to the membrane. Conversely, GRK2 and GRK3 are primarily localized to the cytosol and translocate to the membrane after receptor stimulation.

    GSK2163632A
    Inhibitor
    GSK2163632A is a selective G protein-coupled receptor kinase (GRK) inhibitor that may serve as a probe for studying heart failure and Parkinson's disease. Screening of known protein kinase inhibitors by differential scanning fluorescence method revealed that the melting points of GRK2 and GRK5 increased. Enzymatic assays of the 14 most stable hits revealed that three exhibited nanomolar inhibitory potency against a single GRK, with some showing significant selectivity. Most of the identified compounds can be divided into two categories: indazole/dihydropyrimidine compounds selectively inhibit GRK2, and pyrrolopyrimidine compounds effectively inhibit GRK1 and GRK5 but with modest selectivity. The two most inhibitory representative compounds, GSK180736A and GSK2163632A, are co-crystals with GRK2 and GRK1, respectively, and their atomic structures were determined to 2.6 and 1.85 ? distances, respectively. GSK180736A, as an inhibitor of Rho-related coiled-coil protein kinase, binds to GRK2 in a manner similar to paroxetine, while GSK2163632A, as an inhibitor of insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor, occupies a novel region of the GRK active site cleft and may be used to achieve more Selectivity. However, both compounds inhibited GRK no more potently than their original targets. These data provide a basis for the rational design of more effective and selective GRK inhibitors in the future.
