Mutual action by Gγ and Gβ for optimal activation of GIRK channels in a channel subunit-specific manner

The tetrameric G protein-gated K(+) channels (GIRKs) mediate inhibitory effects of neurotransmitters that activate G(i/o)-coupled receptors. GIRKs are activated by binding of the Gβγ dimer, via contacts with Gβ. Gγ underlies membrane targeting of Gβγ, but has not been implicated in channel gating. W...
