G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are transmembrane detectors of extracellular signals that activate heterotrimeric G proteins to regulate intracellular responses. Because there are only 16 Gα proteins that can couple to GPCRs, variation in a single Gα can affect the function of numerous receptors. Here, we investigated two mutant forms of Gα<sub>s</sub> (L388R and E392K) that are associated with pseudohypoparathyroidism type Ic (PHPIc), a maternally inherited rare disease. Gα<sub>s</sub> is e ...[more]
