Answer:G protein action

Explanation:

Signal transduction through protein action is through G protein coupled receptors (GPCR). Binding of different types of signal molecules to G protein couple receptors is a general mechanism of signal transduction.

G proteins act as an intermediary to a stimulation of a receptor. When an extracellular messenger, the hormone (H) combines with the specific receptor (R) on the plasma membrane. The H-R complex activates the regulatory components of G proteins. The G-protein inturn will interact with the effect proteins which may be enzymes or ion channel proteins, which result in the desired effect.

Proteins produced by the immune system to destroy substances containing antigens are called
Tomtit [17]
Antibodies, also called immunoglobulins, are proteins manufactured by the body that help fight against foreign substances called antigens. When an antigen enters the body, it stimulates the immune system to produce antibodies. (The immune system is the body's natural defense system.) The antibodies attach, or bind, themselves to the antigen and inactivate it.<span>
