Peptide ligand recognition by G protein-coupled receptors

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2015
The past few years have seen spectacular progress in the structure determination of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). We now have structural representatives from classes A, B, C, and F.

Regulating G protein-coupled receptors by topological inversion

open access: yeseLife, 2019
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are a family of proteins containing seven transmembrane helices, with the N- and C-terminus of the protein located at the extracellular space and cytosol, respectively.

G Protein-Coupled Receptors in Taste Physiology and Pharmacology

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Heterotrimeric G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) comprise the largest receptor family in mammals and are responsible for the regulation of most physiological functions.

Signal Transduction of Sphingosine-1-Phosphate G Protein—Coupled Receptors

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2006
Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive lipid capable of eliciting dramatic effects in a variety of cell types. Signaling by this molecule is by a family of five G protein—coupled receptors named S1P1–5 that signal through a variety of pathways to ...

G Protein-Coupled Receptor Kinases Take Central Stage

open access: yesCells, 2022
The relevance of the family of G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) is based on its key participation in the regulation and intracellular dynamics of the largest family of membrane receptors, namely G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) [...]

Interaction of Prokineticin Receptors with Accessory Proteins

open access: yesEncyclopedia, 2023
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are transmembrane proteins that mediate the intracellular pathway of signals not only through heterotrimeric GTP-binding proteins (G proteins) but also through their associations with a variety of additional partner ...

G Protein–Coupled Receptor Deorphanizations [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Pharmacology and Toxicology, 2013
G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs) are major regulators of intercellular interactions. They initiate these actions by being activated by a wide variety of natural ligands. Historically, ligands were discovered first, but the advent of molecular biology reversed this trend.

Functional expression of opioid receptors and other human GPCRs in yeast engineered to produce human sterols

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is powerful for studying human G protein-coupled receptors as they can be coupled to its mating pathway. Here the authors engineer baker’s yeast to produce human sterols and show that vertebrate G protein coupled ...

GPCRs in Intracellular Compartments: New Targets for Drug Discovery

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
The architecture of eukaryotic cells is defined by extensive membrane-delimited compartments, which entails separate metabolic processes that would otherwise interfere with each other, leading to functional differences between cells.
