Gi alpha 3 is a G-protein subunit that is involved in many signal transduction pathways including the mediation of EGF-induced PLC-gamma activation and Ca+2 mobilization in hepatocytes1,2.
G-proteins are membrane associated heterotrimeric proteins that are comprised of alpha, beta-, and lambda-subunits.
The alpha-subunit contains a guanine-binding domain that is in its inactive state when it is occupied by GDP.
Upon activation, GDP is replaced with GTP, causing the dissociation of the alpha-subunit from the beta, lambda-subunit complex.
This enables the G alpha-GTP complex to bind to and regulate specific signaling pathways.
GTP is then hydrolyzed, allowing for re-association of the alpha-subunit with the beta, lambda- subunit complex.
