Many of them activate adenylate cyclase, which simulates the production of the secondary messenger cyclic AMP.
The feoB protein's n-terminus contains the key domain of these proteins. An example of these is mutated in McCuneAlbright syndrome. Attempts to change the localization of one notable example of these proteins has lead to development of farnesyltransferase inhibitors. They contain switch I and II components. (*) Phospholipase C is activated by the q parts of these. They come in heterotrimeric form and the small type found in the Ras superfamily. Many of them activate adenylate cyclase, which simulates the production of the secondary messenger cyclic AMP. For 10 points, name this class of proteins that are involved in signal transduction, named for the fact that they bind compounds containing guanine.
The feoB protein's n-terminus contains the key domain of these proteins.
