== Function == | |||
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/GBG2_HUMAN GBG2_HUMAN] Guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) are involved as a modulator or transducer in various transmembrane signaling systems. The beta and gamma chains are required for the GTPase activity, for replacement of GDP by GTP, and for G protein-effector interaction (By similarity). | |||

== Publication Abstract from PubMed == | |||
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) encodes the orphan G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) UL33, which exhibits constitutive activity that disrupts host G protein signalling, facilitating efficient viral replication and pathogenesis. The cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structure of UL33 bound to the G(s) subtype of G protein reveals the N-terminal peptide as a tethered ligand reminiscent of the protease-activated receptors and adhesion GPCRs. This self-agonism induces a non-canonical active state that facilitates promiscuous G protein coupling, a plausible viral strategy for fine-tuning host signalling. Structure-guided mutagenesis disrupting key interactions between the N-terminus and its binding pocket abolishes G protein-mediated signalling, confirming the role of the N-terminus as a self-agonist. Our findings elucidate the structural basis for this activation mechanism and highlight the strategies employed by HCMV to hijack host G protein signalling. | |||
