...classes of G-proteins – trimeric and monomeric. As their names suggest, trimeric G-proteins are composed of three subunits (α, β and γ). Monomeric G-proteins consist of only a single polypeptide that is analogous to the α subunit of trimeric G-proteins. Trimeric G-proteins interact with a class of receptor known as G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). In their...
