    Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Asn126 of human Gα(q) protein.

    Background

    Heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) consist of α, β and γ subunits and mediate the effects of hormones, neurotransmitters, chemokines, and sensory stimuli. To date, over 20 known Gα subunits have been classified into four families, Gα(s), Gα(i/o), Gα(q) and Gα(12), based on structural and functional similarities (1,2). Phosphorylation of Tyr356 of Gα(q)/Gα(11) is essential for activation of the G protein, since phenylalanine substitution for Tyr356 changes the interaction of Gα with receptors and abolishes ligand-induced IP3 formation (3).
    The Gα(q) guanine nucleotide-binding protein mediates communication between cell surface receptors and the key signal transduction enzyme phospholipase C-β (4). Mutations in the corresponding GNAQ gene can result in Sturge-Weber syndrome, a neurological and skin disorder characterized by facial port-wine stains, glaucoma, seizures, and mental retardation (5).
