G-protein coupled receptors can exhibit which of the following actions?
Answer: (A) Dimerization.
G-protein-coupled receptors have classically been assumed and hypothesized to exist as monomers. However, recent studies revealed the existance of GPCR oligomer which is a protein complex that consists of a small number od GPCRs, held together by covalent bonds or by intermolecular forces. The subunit within this complex is called as protomers and the identical protomers together constitute receptor hormone called as "receptor homodimers". Receptor heterodimers consist of two different GPCRs which is the simplest heteromeric GPCR oligomers. The necessity of dimerization is explained by the metabotropic γ-aminobutyric acid b receptor (GbR), which is composed of two subunits GbR1 and GbR2 . Under monomeric condition, GbR1 is retained intracellularly and unfunctional GbR2 reaches the cell surface.

Some G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are associated with a protein called RGS, which stimulates the GTPase activity of the receptor’s G-protein. What effect does RGS have on GPCR signaling? a. Signaling events are activated (upregulated) due to an increase in cAMP levels. b. Signaling events are downregulated due to disruption of the receptor-ligand interaction. c. Signaling events are activated as PKA as inhibition from the regulatory subunits is abolished. d. Signaling events are downregulated as the G-protein adopts its inactive...
