Implication of a Surface-localized GPCR:

The engagement of PLC-PKC and PKA pathways by CORT in activating Pyk2 hinted at the potential signaling role of G proteins. Consistent with previous demonstrations that the PLC-PKC pathway can be activated by PTX-insensitive G_q subunits as well as PTX-sensitive G/_i subunits (34), we observed here that pretreatment with PTX prevents CORT-triggered phosphorylation of Pyk2 and Src (Fig. 6A); these findings implicate the involvement of the – subunits of G_i (34). …
