All are true regarding G protein Except?

A
It have a trimeric structure
B
It is activated by GTP binding
C
Alpha subunit has GTPase activity
D
Active conformation has all three subunits
High-Yield Explanation
G Protein have trimeric structure with alpha,beta and gamma subunits.But activated form has only GTP bound alpha subunit-GTP-alpha. The action is terminated when the GTPase activity of alpha subunit hydrolyses GTP to GDP.ADP ribosylation of alpha subunit leads to inhibition of GTPase activity. Ref:Murray R.K. (2011). Chapter 46.
