Term Name: | termination of G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway |
---|---|
Synonyms: | termination of G-protein coupled receptor signaling pathway, termination of G-protein coupled receptor signalling pathway, termination of GPCR signaling pathway |
Definition: | The signaling process in which G protein-coupled receptor signaling is brought to an end. For example, through the action of GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs) that act to accelerate hydrolysis of GTP to GDP on G-alpha proteins, thereby terminating the transduced signal. |
