G Protein betagamma dimer formation: Gbeta and Ggamma differentially determine efficiency of in vitro dimer formation.

abstract：:The subtilisins have an extended substrate binding cleft comprising at least 8 subsites. Two pockets at the S1 and S4 sites are particularly conspicuous, and the interactions between substrate and these two pockets are very important for the substrate specificity.
