Abstract

G-protein-coupled receptor function involves interactions between the receptor, G-proteins and effectors in the cell plasma membrane. The main biochemical processes have been individually identified but the mechanisms governing the successive protein-protein interactions of this complex multi-molecular machinery have yet to be established. We discuss advances in understanding the functional dynamics of the receptor resulting from diffusion measurements, and in the context of the plasma membrane organization.
