Receptor tyrosine kinases do not require the use of second messengers while G protein-coupled receptors need.
The receptor it self is a trans-membrane protein and doesn't act as an ion channel further more the G-protein involves several functions by its different subunits (G-alph: activation of PLC and adenylcyclase. and G-beta,gamma: activation of potassium channel) and the receptor is coupled with more than one G-protein which lead to amplification of the signal. So G-protein could be possibly evolved to do several functions and amplify them by one receptor
GTP activates a G-protein when it displaces the GDP.

G protein-coupled receptors database was created in 1998.

G proteins were discovered when Alfred G. Gilman and Martin Rodbell investigated stimulation of cells by adrenaline. They found that, when adrenaline binds to a receptor, the receptor does not stimulate enzymes directly. Instead, the receptor stimulates a G protein, which stimulates an enzyme. An example is adenylate cyclase, which produces the second messenger cyclic AMP. For this discovery, they won the 1994 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.

All action of neurotransmitter is eventually (mostly) manifest in the regulation of ion in nerve cell, to decide when to fire or not an action potential. Regulation of ion utilize the ion channel, and there are three (known) mechanism which affect the opening and closing of an ion channel : 1) direct influence - ion channel which is directly activated by neurotransmitter attached to them, this one is called ¨Transmitter Gated Channel¨ 2) shortcut pathways - ion channel which is activated by G-protein, this is called the ¨G-protein-gated ion channels¨ 3) second messenger cascades - G-protein trigger a chain reaction of chemical through enzyme or other class of protein and finally affect the opening and closing of ion channels
Binding to specific receptors and employing the services of G proteins and cAMP.
