Localization and characterization of tubulin-like proteins associated with brain mitochondria: the presence of a membrane-specific isoform.

abstract：:G protein-coupled receptors are important regulators of cellular signaling processes. Within the large family of rhodopsin-like receptors, those binding to biogenic amines form a discrete subgroup. Activation of biogenic amine receptors leads to transient changes of intracellular Ca²⁺-([Ca²⁺](i)) or 3',5'-cyclic adeno...
