6 In saturation studies removal of divalent cations and addition of GTPgS resulted in a 65% reduction in the B max with no change in the K d . These results are consistent with the ligand labelling two states of the receptor R*, a high a nity state and R*G, a high a nity G protein coupled state.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
