Abstract
How does a trimeric G protein on the inside of a cell membrane respond to activation by a transmembrane receptor? G-protein mutations in patients with hypertension and inherited endocrine disorders enhance or block signals from stimulated receptors. In combination with three-dimensional crystal structures and results from biochemical experiments, the phenotypes produced by these mutations suggest a model for the molecular activation mechanism that relays hormonal and sensory signals transmitted by many transmembrane receptors.
