Scope note: Proteínas de la superficie celular que poseen alta afinidd para unir a la célula moléculas externas señalizadoras y convierten este evento extracelular en una o más señales intracelulares que alteran el comportamiento de la célula diana. (Alberts, Molecular Biology of the Cell, 2nd ed, pp693-5) Los receptores de la superficie celular, a diferencia de las enzimas, no alteran químicamente a sus ligandos.

Scope note: Cell surface proteins that bind signalling molecules external to the cell with high affinity and convert this extracellular event into one or more intracellular signals that alter the behavior of the target cell (From Alberts, Molecular Biology of the Cell, 2nd ed, pp693-5). Cell surface receptors, unlike enzymes, do not chemically alter their ligands.
Annotation: general or unspecified; prefer specifics; coord IM with specific endogenous substance (IM); for hormone receptors in general coord HORMONES (IM) and RECEPTORS, CELL SURFACE (IM) or RECEPTORS, CYTOPLASMIC AND NUCLEAR (IM), for receptors of specific hormones, coord specific hormone or hormone group (IM) and precoord hormone receptor (e.g., RECEPTORS, ALDOSTERONE) (IM) or precoord hormone-group receptor (e.g., RECEPTORS, GLUCOCORTICOID) (IM)
