Document Summary

G- protein coupled receptor: transmembrane receptor that is activated by the g-protein. G- protein: a protein that binds to gtp molecule. Many different signalling molecules use g protein-coupled receptors. There are 4 different types of g proteins inside the cell. G- proteins aid in embryonic development and sen. G-protein pathway: the g-protein-coupled receptor is attached to the plasma membrane of the cell and has both a cytoplasmic side and a an extracellular side. The g-protein is only located on the cytoplasmic side of the cell"s membrane and is turned on or off depending if it is bounded to a one of the two guanine nucleotides, gtp or gdp. If gdp is attached to the g-protein it is inactive: when a signalling molecule attached to the g-protein coupled receptor outside of the cell, the receptor changes conformation and is activated. The receptor then binds to the g-protein that is on its cytoplasmic side, causing the g-protein to trade gdp for gtp.
