Research Abstract |
Trimeric G proteins transmit extracellular signals to regulate the intracellular effectors. The spatiotemporal regulation of this signal closely links to the cellular responses. In this study, we addressed the regulation of G protein signaling by RGS proteins, the mathematical models of G protein signaling and the structure-function relationship of K^+ channel to analyze the physiological regulation of G protein signaling.
