G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are believed to be the largest family of membrane proteins involved in signal transduction and cellular responses. They dimerize (form a pair of macromolecules) with a wide variety of other receptors. The proposed book will provide a comprehensive overview of GPCR dimers, starting with a historical perspective and including, basic information about the different dimers, how they synthesize, their signaling properties, and the many diverse physiological processes in which they are involved. In addition to presenting information about healthy GPCR dimer activity, the book will also include a section on their pathology and therapeutic potentials.
Katharine Herrick-Davis is Professor of Neuroscience and Experimental Therapeutics at Albany Medical College, Albany, USA. Her research has focused on investigating receptor dimerization and how it affects receptor function using the 5-HT2C receptor as a model system.
