Cadus is using yeast to identify a class of proteins known as G protein-coupled receptors.

FORBES: Rx: No merger

At the time the hot research area was in testing G-protein-coupled receptors, or GPCRs.

FORBES: The Next Fat Pill

These included genes involved in the regulation of three neurotransmitters dopamine, glutamate and serotonin and also G-protein-coupled receptors, which react to a wide variety of stimulants.

ECONOMIST: The genetics of politics

At the time, the hot research area was in testing G-protein-coupled receptors, or GPCRS. These proteins transmit chemical signals into a wide variety of cell types.

FORBES: The Next Fat Pill

Noting that its basic structure resembled that of other receptors, he also came to understand that there exists an entire family of similar receptors, now widely known as G-protein-coupled receptors, or GPCRs.

WHITEHOUSE: Two American Scientists Win Nobel Prize in Chemistry

Peroxynitrites contribute to the hyperphosphorylation of tau proteins by oxidating g-protein coupled receptors and trysoine kinase receptors preventing protein kinase C and AKT from inactivating the enzyme GSK3 which is necessary to prevent the hyperphosphorylation of tau proteins.

This one gene is the longest of the 25, 000 that make up the human genome, and it consists of 2.2 million "letters" (A, T, G and C for four different nucleic acids), which spell out the recipe for making the muscle protein.
