Place the steps in the pathway of the G protein cycle in the proper order

What will be an ideal response?


A polar regulatory molecule binds to its receptor
The alpha subunit of G protein releases GDP and binds GTP
The alpha subunit dissociates from the beta-gamma subunits
Either the alpha subunit or the beta gamma complex moves through the plasma membrane and binds to the effector protein
The alpha subunit splits GTP and re-associates with beta gamma
