Seven transmembrane receptors heterotrimeric g protein activates receptors bombesin. Medical search. Frequent questions

These peptides bind to seven transmembrane domain receptors which lack intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity and activate second messenger pathways via heterotrimeric G proteins. (ucl.ac.uk)
They pass through the cell membrane seven times in the form of six loops (three extracellular loops interacting with ligand molecules, three intracellular loops interacting with G proteins, an N-terminal extracellular region and a C-terminal intracellular region) of amino acid residues, which is why they are sometimes referred to as seven-transmembrane receptors. (wikipedia.org)
The way in which the seven transmembrane helices of a GPCR are arranged into a bundle was suspected based on the low-resolution model of frog rhodopsin from cryogenic electron microscopy studies of the two-dimensional crystals. (wikipedia.org)

(ucl.ac.uk)
Since tyrphostin is known to inhibit polypeptide receptor tyrosine kinases and inhibits neuropeptide stimulated mitogenesis, the effect of tyrphostin with or without SP analogues was tested on SCLC growth in vitro. (ucl.ac.uk)
Depending on which family the G protein is, it goes on to activate (G αs protein subunit) or inhibit (G αi protein subunit) the membrane-bound cyclase. (pancreapedia.org)
