Differential Study of GPCR-G Protein Coupling Biosensors Background Introduction G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are important molecules for transmembrane signal transduction, capable of selectively binding to heterotrimeric G proteins composed of Gα, Gβ, and Gγ subunits and regulating various intracellular signaling processes. Studying the fun...
