All GPCRs are transmembrane proteins with seven membrane-spanning helices.
2
Binding of ligand to GPCR causes the receptor to activate G proteins by facilitating the exchange of GDP for GTP on the G protein.
3
GPCRs can directly phosphorylate downstream signaling proteins to elicit cellular responses.
4
GPCRs are involved in numerous physiological processes, including vision, taste, and smell.
