G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) autoantibodies
Description
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest family of cell surface receptors involved in signal transduction. They share a common structure and signal through heterotrimeric G-Proteins. GPCR-autoantibodies are functional autoantibodies that bind to GPCR and activate second-messenger cascades in an uncontrolled manner.
