G-Protein-Coupled Receptor Dimers: The Receptors, cartea 33

Editat de Katharine Herrick-Davis, Graeme Milligan, Giuseppe Di Giovanni
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 12 sep 2017
G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are believed to be the largest family of membrane proteins involved in signal transduction and cellular responses. They dimerize (form a pair of macromolecules) with a wide variety of other receptors. The proposed book will provide a comprehensive overview of GPCR dimers, starting with a historical perspective and including, basic information about the different dimers, how they synthesize, their signaling properties, and the many diverse physiological processes in which they are involved.  In addition to presenting information about healthy GPCR dimer activity, the book will also include a section on their pathology and therapeutic potentials.
