Structural insights into G protein-coupled receptor signaling [PDF]
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest single family of transmembrane proteins encoded in the human genome, and they are among the most successful classes of therapeutic drug targets of all time.

High capacity in G protein-coupled receptor signaling [PDF]
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) activate intracellular signalling pathways upon extracellular stimulation. Here authors record single cell responses of GPCR signalling which allows the direct estimation of its channel capacity for each cell along ...

The Open Question of How GPCRs Interact with GPCR Kinases (GRKs)
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), which regulate a vast number of eukaryotic processes, are desensitized by various mechanisms but, most importantly, by the GPCR kinases (GRKs).

DEER Analysis of GPCR Conformational Heterogeneity
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) represent a large class of transmembrane helical proteins which are involved in numerous physiological signaling pathways and therefore represent crucial pharmacological targets.

G Protein-Coupled Receptor Kinases Take Central Stage
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) [...]

Allosteric modulation of G protein-coupled receptor signaling
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), the largest family of transmembrane proteins, regulate a wide array of physiological processes in response to extracellular signals. Although these receptors have proven to be the most successful class of drug targets,

Interaction of the Xanthine Nucleotide Binding Goα Mutant with G Protein-coupled Receptors [PDF]
We constructed a double mutant version of the α subunit of Go that was regulated by xanthine nucleotides instead of guanine nucleotides (GoαX). We investigated the interaction between GoαX and G protein-coupled receptors in vitro.

Creation of photocyclic vertebrate rhodopsin by single amino acid substitution
Opsins are universal photoreceptive proteins in animals and can be classified into three types based on their photoreaction properties. Upon light irradiation, vertebrate rhodopsin forms a metastable active state, which cannot revert back to the original

Both Ligand- and Cell-Specific Parameters Control Ligand Agonism in a Kinetic Model of G Protein–Coupled Receptor Signaling [PDF]
G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs) exist in multiple dynamic states (e.g., ligand-bound, inactive, G protein–coupled) that influence G protein activation and ultimately response generation. In quantitative models of GPCR signaling that incorporate these
