a: G protein ~
b: a dancer who takes different forms
What: "One of the questions that scientists ask is how the same protein G is able to generate different responses depending on the signals received. In this paper, researchers show how the beta
subunit of G protein adopts different three-dimensional structures depending on the effector molecule to which it is linked. "The G protein is like a dancer who takes different forms according to its dance partner"
