Abstract excerpt
For decades, it has been generally proposed that a given receptor always interacts with a particular GTP-binding protein (G-protein) or with multiple G-proteins within one family. However, for several G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCR), it now becomes generally accepted that simultaneous functional coupling with distinct unrelated G-proteins can be observed, leading to the activation of multiple intracellular...
