Explain the action of a G-protein coupled receptor and its related trimeric G protein in cell signaling. Describe each component in appropriate detail and then trace each step of the pathway of signaling, beginning with the signaling molecule (we'll use adrenaline) and ending with termination of the signal at each component involved.
