grk-2 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable G protein-coupled receptor binding activity and G protein-coupled receptor kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of egg-laying behavior; positive regulation of growth rate; and serotonin catabolic process. Expressed in neurons and vulval muscle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including bacterial pneumonia; rheumatoid arthritis; and toxic shock syndrome. Is an ortholog of human GRK2 (G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2) and GRK3 (G protein-coupled receptor kinase 3).
