The role of regulators of G-protein signalling (RGS) in the predisposition to atrial fibrillation
The electrophysiological basis of atrial fibrillation (AF) is unknown. Regulators of G-protein signalling (RGS) act to deactivate G-protein signalling; they interact with the α subunit and accelerate intrinsic GTP-ase activity. RGS 4 negatively regulates inhibitory Gαi/o and Gαq/11 signalling. Absen...
