Text of Note

It is only in the last two decades that "molecular pharmacology" has blossomed, first with the advent of radioligand binding techniques and second messenger studies which greatly facilitated the biochemical study of drug-receptor interactions, and latterly with increasing knowledge of the molecular architecture of the receptor proteins themselves.

G proteins -- Physiological effect.

G proteins -- Receptors.

Neurotransmitter receptors.
