Abstract
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest receptor family in eukaryotes with about 2000 representatives in the human genome. Of these, about 1500 GPCRs transmit signals in intracellular communication, while the remaining part are involved in the recognition of sensory signals such as odorants, gustatory substances and, through the visual pigment rhodopsin, light [1, 2].
