45. G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the most prominent and diverse family of cell-surface receptors and are therefore targets for approximately 40% of marketed drugs. The following is a typical scenario of GPCR-mediated signaling pathway: GPCR receives extracellular signals → activated GPCR acts as a guanine nucleotide exchanger (GEF) → Galpha subunit of G protein releases GDP and binds GTP → Galpha subunit binds and activates its target enzyme upon GTP hydrolysis → a secondary messenger is generated → another protein is activated → cellular responses follow. Which of the following is a common secondary messenger used in the scenario?
(A) sodium ions (Na+)
(B) magnesium ions (Mg2+)
(C) nitric oxide (NO)
(D) guanine monophosphate (GMP)
(E) cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)
