Understanding the Allosteric Modulation of PTH1R by a Negative Allosteric Modulator
Cells, 2022 The parathyroid hormone type 1 receptor (PTH1R) acts as a canonical class B G protein-coupled receptor, regulating crucial functions including calcium homeostasis and bone formation.

Allosteric Modulation of Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptors
Pharmaceuticals, 2010 An allosteric modulator is a ligand that binds to an allosteric site on the receptor and changes receptor conformation to produce increase (positive cooperativity) or decrease (negative cooperativity) in the binding or action of an orthosteric agonist (e.

The allosterically modulated FFAR2 is transactivated by signals generated by other neutrophil GPCRs.
PLoS ONE, 2023 Positive allosteric modulators for free fatty acid receptor 2 (FFAR2/GPR43), that affect receptor function through binding to two distinct allosteric binding sites, were used to determine the correlation between the responses induced in neutrophils by ...

A Structure-Based Allosteric Modulator Design Paradigm
Health Data Science, 2023 Importance: Allosteric drugs bound to topologically distal allosteric sites hold a substantial promise in modulating therapeutic targets deemed undruggable at their orthosteric sites. Traditionally, allosteric modulator discovery has predominantly relied

Conformational fingerprinting of allosteric modulators in metabotropic glutamate receptor 2
eLife, 2022 Activation of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) is an allosteric process. It involves conformational coupling between the orthosteric ligand binding site and the G protein binding site. Factors that bind at non-cognate ligand binding sites to alter the
