G protein coupled receptor... GTP. --> the receptor acts like a GEF (guanine nucleotide exchange factor) then de alfa-subunit dissociates from the beta/gamma-subunit of the ... for exampel transcription. The alfa-subunit hydrolyses its GTP through intrinsic GTPase activity and reassociates to form the heterotrimeric G-protein.
