Mammalian 'regulators of G protein signaling' (RGS proteins) help shut off G-protein-mediated signaling by GTPase activation. But new evidence shows that RGS proteins can also speed up the activation of signaling. The combined effect is a change in signaling kinetics without a decrease in signaling intensity.
哺乳动物的“G蛋白信号调节因子”（RGS蛋白）通过激活GTP酶来帮助关闭G蛋白介导的信号传导。但新证据表明，RGS蛋白也能加速信号传导的激活。综合效应是信号动力学发生变化，而信号强度不降低。
