| definition |
Integral plasma membrane proteins that transduce signals from extracellular ligands to signals in intracellular heterotrimeric GTP binding proteins (G proteins). By coupling to many downstream effectors, the G proteins initiate pleiotropic changes in many targets. Thus, the extracellular signal is typically amplified to produce robust, varied, and cell-specific responses. |
