The Glucagon-Sensitive Adenyl Cyclase System in Plasma Membranes of Rat Liver: I. Properties
Description:
The first in a now-classic series of five articles in which Rodbell concluded that GTP was likely the active biological factor in separating glucagon, a hormone that can act to increase blood glucose levels, from the cell's receptor, which had important implications for the treatment of various disorders and diseases.
