Abstract

The oligomerization of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) is a fact that deserves further attention as increases both the complexity and diversity of the receptor-mediated signal transduction, thus enriching the cell signaling. Consequently, in the present review we tackle among others the problems concerning the terminology used to describe aspects surrounding the GPCRs oligomerization phenomenon. Therefore, the theoretical implications of the GPCR oligomerization will be briefly discussed together with possible implications of this phenomenon especially for new strategies in drug development.
