Chapter 20, Problem 16P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Expected consequences on addition of GTPgS to adrenergic signaling system should be identified.

Concept Introduction:

GTPgS is a derivative of GTP having a sulfur atom at gamma position of guanosine triphosphate which cannot undergoes hydrolysis. GTP contains a G protein which helps in the release of free phosphate from GTP by converting it into GDP as follows:

GTP      GDP + P

This release in phosphate results in the production of energy.
