Multi-omics analysis of glucose-mediated signaling by a moonlighting Gβ protein Asc1/RACK1.

Heterotrimeric G proteins were originally discovered through efforts to understand the effects of hormones, such as glucagon and epinephrine, on glucose metabolism. On the other hand, many cellular metabolites, including glucose, serve as ligands for G protein-coupled receptors. Here we investigate...
