Preferred term

GTP-Binding Protein beta Subunits  

Type

  • Topical Descriptor

Entry terms

  • beta Subunit, G-Protein
  • G Protein beta Subunit
  • G-Protein beta Subunit
  • GTP Binding Protein beta Subunit
  • GTP-Binding Protein beta Subunit
  • Subunit, G-Protein beta

Scope note

  • Heterotrimeric GTP-binding protein subunits that tightly associate with GTP-BINDING PROTEIN GAMMA SUBUNITS. A dimer of beta and gamma subunits is formed when the GTP-BINDING PROTEIN ALPHA SUBUNIT dissociates from the GTP-binding protein heterotrimeric complex. The beta-gamma dimer can play an important role in signal transduction by interacting with a variety of second messengers.

History note

  • 2004; use HETEROTRIMERIC GTP-BINDING PROTEINS 2001-2003
