Initialism of G protein–coupled receptor.
G-protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) are key modulators of G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling. Source: Internet
GPCR cellular regulation Receptor desensitization is mediated through a combination phosphorylation, β-arr binding, and endocytosis as described above. Source: Internet
Of the four 5-HT receptor classes, 3 are GPCR and 1 is ligand gated cation channel. Source: Internet
As a result, the GPCR reorganizes to allow activation of G-alpha proteins. Source: Internet
Glutamate receptors are one of four categories, three of which are ligand-gated ion channels and one of which is a G-protein coupled receptor (often referred to as GPCR). Source: Internet
In addition, the GPCR may be desensitized itself. Source: Internet
