'''G<sub>q</sub> protein''' ('''G<sub>αq</sub>''', or '''G<sub>q/11</sub>''') is a [[heterotrimeric G protein]] subunit that activates [[phospholipase C]] (PLC). PLC in turn hydrolyzes [[Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate]] (PIP<sub>2</sub>) to [[diacyl glycerol]] (DAG) and [[inositol trisphosphate]] (IP<sub>3</sub>) [[signal transduction]] [[Metabolic pathway|pathway]].  DAG acts as a second messenger that activates [[Protein Kinase C]] (PKC) and IP<sub>3</sub> helps in phosphorylation of some proteins.

'''G<sub>q</sub> protein''' or '''G<sub>q/11</sub>''' is a [[heterotrimeric G protein]] subunit that activates [[phospholipase C]] (PLC). PLC in turn hydrolizes [[phosphatidylinositol]] (PIP<sub>2</sub>) to [[diacyl glycerol]] (DAG) and [[inositol triphosphate]] (IP<sub>3</sub>) [[signal transduction]] [[Metabolic pathway|pathway]]. DAG acts as a second messenger that activates [[Protein Kinase C]] (PKC) and IP<sub>3</sub> helps in phosphorylation of some proteins.
There has been much debate about the naming of the G<sub>αq</sub>. In the initial identification of the protein, it was named G alpha 42, because it runs at 42 kDa on SDS-PAGE. Although, already identified by Micheal Strathmann and Mel Simon, shared the sequence thus naming it G alpha q. However, the "q" in the name is arbitrarily named and does not stand for anything in particular. This nomenclature came from Micheal Strathmann and Mel Simon after their discovery of the protein class in 1989. Essentially, the q designation comes from the fact that Michael Strathmann couldn't use the front end of the alphabet "because those early letters were already reserved for some classes of subunits, the Gz designation had been taken, and Gx seemed too obvious -- and so Gq." Rumors suggest that Gq was named referencing the style magazine GQ.

Gq protein (Gαq, or Gq/11) is a heterotrimeric G protein subunit that activates phospholipase C (PLC). PLC in turn hydrolyzes Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) to diacyl glycerol (DAG) and inositol trisphosphate (IP3) signal transduction pathway. DAG acts as a second messenger that activates Protein Kinase C (PKC) and IP3 helps in phosphorylation of some proteins.

Naming

There has been much debate about the naming of the Gαq. In the initial identification of the protein, it was named G alpha 42, because it runs at 42 kDa on SDS-PAGE. Although, already identified by Micheal Strathmann and Mel Simon, shared the sequence thus naming it G alpha q. However, the "q" in the name is arbitrarily named and does not stand for anything in particular. This nomenclature came from Micheal Strathmann and Mel Simon after their discovery of the protein class in 1989. Essentially, the q designation comes from the fact that Michael Strathmann couldn't use the front end of the alphabet "because those early letters were already reserved for some classes of subunits, the Gz designation had been taken, and Gx seemed too obvious -- and so Gq." Rumors suggest that Gq was named referencing the style magazine GQ.

Function

Gq proteins are class of G proteins which work to activate phospholipase C (PLC), participating in a variety of cellular signaling pathways.[1]

The Gq protein works by activating PLC. PLC then cleaves a phospholipid. In the process, phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) is cleaved into diacyl glycerol (DAG) and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3). DAG remains bound to the membrane, and IP3 is released as a soluble structure into the cytosol. IP3 then diffuses through the cytosol to bind to IP3 receptors, particularly calcium channels in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). These channels are specific to calcium and only allow the passage of calcium to move through. This causes the cytosolic concentration of calcium to increase, causing a cascade of intracellular changes and activity.[1]

In addition, calcium and DAG together work to activate PKC, which goes on to phosphorylate other molecules, leading to altered cellular activity.[1]

Examples of GPCR partners

From modulatory neurotransmitter receptors (amine receptors belonging to rhodopsin family), Gq has been shown to be pre-coupled with Gq-coupled receptors physically and is functionally coupled to e.g. the G-protein coupled receptors:[2]

It has been shown that Gq proteins are preassembled (pre-coupled) with Gq-coupled receptors (such as M3 receptor. The common polybasic domain in the C-tail of Gq-coupled receptors is necessary for the receptor-G protein preassembly.[2]
