Summary: | The G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) constitute a large and ancient superfamily of integral cell membrane proteins that play a central role in signal transduction and are activated by an equally diverse array of ligands. The completion of the sequencing of the Drosophila melanogaster genome allows the analysis of its full repertoire of GPCRs for the first time. |
