Grk2 - G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2

Enables several functions, including opioid receptor binding activity; protein kinase activity; and scaffold protein binding activity. Involved in several processes, including blood vessel diameter maintenance; negative regulation of G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; and negative regulation of cellular protein metabolic process. Located in several cellular components, including basolateral plasma membrane; caveola; and dendrite. Used to study hyperglycemia; impotence; and limb ischemia. Biomarker of Parkinson's disease; congestive heart failure; hypertension; and portal hypertension. Orthologous to human GRK2 (G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2).
