We have developed methods based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer to quantify the kinetics of receptor activation by agonist (measured as conformational change in the receptor), the kinetics of G-protein activation (measured as G-protein subunit rearrangement) and the kinetics of receptor inactivation by arrestins (measured as receptor-arrestin interaction). Using these methods, we show that receptor activation by agonists and signalling to G-proteins occur on the subsecond time scale, whereas receptor desensitization is limited by receptor phosphorylation and proceeds more slowly.
