Alpha receptors have two main types: alpha 1 and alpha 2. These alpha receptors play very important roles. Generally, the alpha receptors contribute large effects on our bodyâs systems. With regards to our vascular, smooth muscles, alpha receptors can constrict the vessels of our skin and skeletal muscles.
The receptors are proteins with seven transmembrane alpha-helices. View this ANIMATION to see the sequence of events during the activation of a receptor coupled to a trimeric G protein. The binding of the hormone or neurotransmitter to the receptor causes GTP to replace GDP on the alpha subunit.As a result, the alpha subunit dissociates from the other two.he receptors are proteins with seven transmembrane alpha-helices.
