| Abstract | β2-Adrenergic receptors (β2-AR) are low abundance, integral membrane proteins that mediate the effects of catecholamines at the cell surface. Whereas the processes governing desensitization of activated β2-ARs and their subsequent removal from the cell surface have been characterized in considerable detail, little is known about the mechanisms controlling trafficking of neo-synthesized receptors to the cell surface. Since the discovery of the signal peptide, the targeting of the integral membrane proteins to plasma membrane has been thought to be determined by structural features of the amino acid sequence alone. Here we report that localization of translationally silenced β2-AR mRNA to the peripheral cytoplasmic regions is critical for receptor localization to the plasma membrane. β2-AR mRNA is recognized by the nucleocytoplasmic shuttling RNA-binding protein HuR, which silences translational initiation while chaperoning the mRNA-protein complex to the cell periphery. When HuR expression is down-regulated, β2-AR mRNA translation is initiated prematurely in perinuclear polyribosomes, leading to overproduction of receptors but defective trafficking to the plasma membrane. Our results underscore the importance of the spatiotemporal relationship between β2-AR mRNA localization, translation, and trafficking to the plasma membrane, and establish a novel mechanism whereby G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) responsiveness is regulated by RNA-based signals. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
