Fast Kinetics
G-protein couple receptors are an important highly druggable gene family. Upon receptor activation, a wide range of second messengers are activated to illicit many different cellular responses. These second messengers include the mobilization of Ca2+, increase or reduction of intracellular cAMP, production of diacylglycerol and phospatidylinositols. These second messengers can be monitored kinetically using fluorescent reagents and biosensors.
