GTP Stimulates and Inhibits Adenylate Cyclase in Fat Cell Membranes through Distinct Regulatory Processes
Description:
The first of two articles in which Rodbell indicated that in addition to transducing hormone signals across the membrane, the G-protein could also inhibit signaling at the discriminator point. He provided evidence that G-proteins at the cellular receptors were sophisticated enough to both inhibit and activate signal transduction.
