Enables several functions, including opioid receptor binding activity; protein kinase activity; and scaffold protein binding activity. Involved in several processes, including blood vessel diameter maintenance; negative regulation of G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; and negative regulation of protein metabolic process. Located in several cellular components, including basolateral plasma membrane; caveola; and dendrite. Is active in glutamatergic synapse; postsynaptic density; and presynapse. Used to study hyperglycemia; impotence; and limb ischemia. Biomarker of Parkinson's disease; congestive heart failure; hypertension; and portal hypertension. Orthologous to human GRK2 (G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2); PARTICIPATES IN dopamine signaling pathway via D2 family of receptors; G protein mediated signaling pathway; somatostatin signaling pathway; INTERACTS WITH 2,2',4,4'-Tetrabromodiphenyl ether; 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzodioxine; 2,4-dinitrotoluene.
