Mammalian RGS Proteins: Barbarians at the Gate
Year: 1998
Type: review
Abstract: Hundreds or thousands of chemical and physical stimuli regulate the functions of eukaryotic cells by controlling the activities of a surprisingly small number of core signaling units that have been duplicated and adapted to achieve the necessary diversity. The most prevalent of these units, at least in animal cells, are three-protein modules consisting of signal recognition elements (receptors) and signal generators (effectors) whose activities are linked and coordinated by heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide-binding proteins or G proteins.
