G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are a large class of seven-transmembrane cell-surface receptors that associate with intracellular heterotrimeric G proteins after ligand binding, and signal by activation of the G protein. Important examples are the chemokine receptors.
Los receptores acoplados a proteínas G (GPCRs) son una clase grande de receptores de siete dominios transmembrana de la superficie celular que se asocian con proteínas G heterotriméricas intracelulares después de la unión de ligandos, y señalan por activación de la proteína G. Ejemplos importantes son los receptores de quimiocinas.
