The ternary complex model as applied to G-protein coupled receptors (GPCR) predicts that an agonist binds with low affinity (K L ) to the free receptor (R), leading to an agonist/receptor/G-protein complex. This ternary complex displays high agonist affinity (K H ), resulting in signal transduction.
