G protein coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) play an important role in homologous desensitization of GPCRs. After the receptor is activated by GRKs phosphorylation, it will promote its high affinity binding to the inhibitory protein, and as a result, it will inhibit the binding to the G protein. Directly binding active GPCRs can activate GRKs, so GRKs tend to selectively phosphorylate only activated receptors regardless of the accessibility of matrix peptides within these receptors or they contain serine threonine sequences.
It is now known that mammalian GRKs can be divided into three main categories, but the mechanism of early GRK evolution is not clear. Recently, Eugenia V. Gurevich and others from Vanderbilt University in the United States did a study on the origin and evolution of G protein-coupled receptor kinase. They found that GRKs appeared significantly earlier than animals. Related papers were published on March 19 in the United States "Public Science Library · Comprehensive" (PLoS One).
Eugenia V. Gurevich pointed out: GRKs appeared in the early evolution of eukaryotes. At that time, a kinase structure similar to the ribosomal protein S6 kinase was inserted into a ring structure of the RGS domain, resulting in the formation of GRKs. GRKs form two branches in multicellular animals, one branch includes GRK2 and GRK3, and the other includes all remaining GRKs. Among vertebrates, GRKs are mainly divided into two categories: GRK1-GRK7 and GRK4-GRK5-GRK6. One of the two ancient branches was discovered as early as the period of the silkworm. Several protists, two oomycetes and unicellular brown algae contain a GRK-like protein, which indicates that the kinase structure has been inserted into the RGS domain long before the multicellular organisms originated. The two GRK families obtain different structural units at the N-terminus and C-terminus, and these structural units are mainly responsible for cell membrane recruitment and receptor coupling.
Therefore, the results of the study indicate that GRKs appear significantly earlier than animals and spread rapidly in post-animals. Of course, this is probably due to the rapid regulation of signals by fast-moving animals.
The name hematite derives it meaning from the greek word for blood. The
reason for the origin of hematite's name can be twofold. Even though it
is shiny black on the outside, if you break the stone (not an easy thing
to do!) you will see that on the inside hematite has a deep blood red
colour. Another reason for its name might be related to the high iron
content found in hematite (almost 70%), which made hematite a popular
healing stone for blood-related disorders. Because hematite has been
used for such a long time, it has a wide variety of healing properties
ascribed to it, from relieving leg cramps to alleviating fevers. The
best way to find out the powers of hematite is to buy a stone and
experiment yourself. Hematite is abundant, thus very affordable.

Hematite clearly has a very strong grounding energy; you can feel that just by holding the stone in your hand. It also has a cooling and calming effect, as well as helps develop concentration and focus. Overall, hematite brings a quality of energy that is powerful, strong and grounding. It works with one's mind by calming it and clearing the unnecessary clutter.
WHAT ARE THE SPECIFIC FENG SHUI PROPERTIES OF HEMATITE?
In feng shui, hematite is used for its grounding, calming, as well as protective properties. Hematite can also be energizing (in a balanced kind of way), so you can often find it in feng shui jewelry.
WHERE DO I PLACE THE HEMATITE FOR GOOD FENG SHUI?
The area of your home bagua that can benefit the most from the energy of hematite is the Career & Path in Life (North bagua area). You can also place the stone in the Creativity & Children bagua area (West). Hematite is also an excellent stone for one's study or home office, as well as by the front door of your house.
WHAT FORM OF HEMATITE SHOULD I CHOOSE?
The form will depends on what you want to use the hematite for. As with all crystals and stones that are quite affordable, it is good to have at least several tumbled rock hematites, because this way you can take them with you anywhere! From your car to your purse or office computer, you can place the hematite where it can help you with a burst of strong and cool, calming energy. There is also a wide variety of various hematite carvings on the market, as well as, of course, Hematite Jewelry. When it comes to jewelry, buy from a good crystal shop to be sure your hematite is not artificially made (or you will not benefit from its properties). If you want to bring a hematite carving into your home (or office) for good feng shui, you can find many small animal carvings in typical gift shops. Choose an animal whose spirit you admire, combine it with the energy of hematite, and voila! - you've just got yourself a good feng shui cure!
