McCune-Albright syndrome is the result of a postzygotic somatic mutation in the gene coding for the alpha subunit of the stimulatory G protein (Gsa). G proteins couple cell surface receptors to intracellular proteins to activate or inactivate signaling cascades. The stimulatory G protein is normally activated when a hormone or other ligand binds to the cell surface receptor. The activated Gsa subunit subsequently disassociates from the receptor, binds to adenylyl cyclase, and stimulates an increase in intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels. The Gsa subunit then is inactivated, reassociates with the receptor, and is again available for hormone-mediated reactivation.
