Title:

Signal Transduction: A Twenty Year History of G-Proteins

Creator:

Rodbell, Martin, 1925-1998

Date:

[ca. 1990]

Description:

In this portion of an unpublished manuscript, Rodbell briefly detailed how scientific knowledge evolved from studies on the regulation of adenylyl cyclase by hormones into recognition that sets of membrane receptors are linked to proteins that bind and degrade GTP (guanosine triphosphate).
