|
A GTP- binding protein that relays signals from a plasma membrane signal receptor, known as a G- protein- linked receptor, to other signal transduction proteins inside the cell. When such a receptor is activated, it in turn activates the G protein, causing it to bind a molecule of GTP in place of GDP. Hydrolysis of the bound GTP to GDP inactivates the G protein. |
