The Gαs subunit consists of two domains, the Ras domain (αRas) and the α-helical domain (αAH). Both are involved in nucleotide binding. A big discovery made thanks to this structure is that the G alpha subunit has large variability between its GTP bound (active) and nucleotide free states, where <scene name='70/701430/Gamorph/ | The Gαs subunit consists of two domains, the Ras domain (αRas) and the α-helical domain (αAH).
