Locusts bypass classical molecular pathway to process smells and pheromones, study reveals
Animals depend on their sense of smell to locate food, identify mates and evade danger. In mammals, olfactory perception typically relies on G protein–coupled receptor (GPCR) pathways. Insects, by ...
G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are seven-pass transmembrane proteins involved in numerous signaling pathways. Upon extracellular ligand binding and activation, members of this superfamily mediate ...
Growth factors trigger G proteins (in green) to disengage from GPCRs and change localization within cells. At right: A ribbon diagram of the G protein structure shows the position of all phosphoevents ...
Signal transduction is a key mechanism that brings about several physiological responses in a cell. Aberrant signaling can result due to gene mutations or regulatory protein overexpression. It is ...
