10. A _____________-coupled receptor is a plasma membrane receptor that works with the help of a G protein that acts as an on/off switch: If GDP is bound to the G protein, the G protein is inactive Receptor ______________________ are membrane receptors that attach phosphates to tyrosines. A receptor tyrosine kinase can trigger multiple signal transduction pathways at once A ligand-gated ________channel receptor acts as a gate when the receptor changes shape, the gate allows specific ions, such as Na + or Ca 2+, through a channel in the receptor Receptors in the Plasma Membrane
