Adrenergic Receptor
G protein coupled receptor that responds to Catecholamines
beta-Adrenergic Receptor
Function/Purpose:
- Binding of catecholamines (epinephrine/norepinephrine) to induce a conformational change from the outside of the receptor that has an affect inside the cell
Mechanism:
beta-Adrenergic Receptor Function- Ligand binds to create a conformational change
- This conformational change affects a G Protein
