Cat#:PA-2796F;Product Name:Rabbit Anti-G protein, beta common Antibody;Synonym:G protein, beta common; G protein beta subunit like; GBL; GBL protein; MGC111011;Background:G proteins (guanine nucleotide-binding proteins) are a family of proteins involved in transmitting chemical signals outside the cell, and causing changes inside the cell. They communicate signals from many hormones, neurotransmitters, and other signaling factors. G protein-coupled receptors are transmembrane receptors. Signal molecules bind to a domain located outside the cell. An intracellular domain activates a G protein. The G protein activates a cascade of further compounds, and finally causes a change downstream in the cell. G proteins function as molecular switches. When they bind guanosine triphosphate (GTP), they are 'on', and when they bind guanosine diphosphate (GDP), they are 'off'. G proteins regulate metabolic enzymes, ion channels, transporters, and other parts of the cell machinery, controlling transcription,motility, contractility, and secretion, which in turn regulate systemic functions such as embryonic development, learning and memory, and homeostasis.;Description:Rabbit Anti-G protein, beta common Polyclonal Antibody;Host Species:Rabbit;Species Reactivity:Human;Storage:Store antibody products at 2-8°C.
