Abstract

The majority of transmembrane signal transduction in response to hormones and neurotransmitters is mediated by G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). 1 Moreover, GPCRs are the principal signal transducers for the senses of sight and smell. GPCRs are characterized by seven membrane-spanning domains with an extracellular N terminus and a cytoplasmic C terminus (Fig. 1) (GPCR structure reviewed in Refs.1-3). Based on certain key sequences, GPCRs can be divided into three major subfamilies, receptors related to rhodopsin (type A), receptors related to the calcitonin receptor (type B), and receptors related to the metabotropic receptors (type C).

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
