The superfamily of GPCRs are integral membrane proteins. Their sequences show seven hydrophobic domains, commonly interpreted as seven transmembrane helices. GPCRs are found in a very wide range of species, and are always involved in signalling from outside the cell to inside the cell. 2, record 1, English, - G%20protein%2Dcoupled%20receptor

Les récepteurs couplés aux protéines G (RCPGs), composant une grande famille de protéines [...] ont pour caractéristique commune de n'être composés que d'une chaîne polypeptidique comportant sept régions hydrophobes vraisemblablement transmembranaires. 5, record 1, French, - r%C3%A9cepteur%20coupl%C3%A9%20%C3%A0%20une%20prot%C3%A9ine%20G

Les récepteurs couplés aux protéines G appartiennent à une même famille, mais ont des propriétés variables en termes d'internalisation, de dégradation et de recyclage des récepteurs libres ou liés à un agoniste. 3, record 1, French, - r%C3%A9cepteur%20coupl%C3%A9%20%C3%A0%20une%20prot%C3%A9ine%20G

GPCR : Bien que cet acronyme soit utilisé en français, il est issu du terme anglais «G protein-coupled receptor». On devrait lui préférer l'acronyme RCPG. 6, record 1, French, - r%C3%A9cepteur%20coupl%C3%A9%20%C3%A0%20une%20prot%C3%A9ine%20G
