Peptide ligand recognition by G protein-coupled receptors [PDF]

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.

Acidic Tumor Microenvironment and pH-Sensing G protein-Coupled Receptors [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2013
The tumor microenvironment is acidic due to glycolytic cancer cell metabolism, hypoxia, and deficient blood perfusion. It is proposed that acidosis in the tumor microenvironment is an important stress factor and selection force for cancer cell somatic ...

Functional optimization of light-activatable Opto-GPCRs: Illuminating the importance of the proximal C-terminus in G-protein specificity

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Introduction: G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest family of human receptors that transmit signals from natural ligands and pharmaceutical drugs into essentially every physiological process.

G protein-coupled receptors: structure- and function-based drug discovery

open access: yesSignal Transduction and Targeted Therapy, 2021
As one of the most successful therapeutic target families, G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) have experienced a transformation from random ligand screening to knowledge-driven drug design.

Powdered G-Protein-Coupled Receptors [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, 2016
Preparation and storage of functional membrane proteins such as G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are crucial to the processes of drug delivery and discovery. Here, we describe a method of preparing powdered GPCRs using rhodopsin as the prototype. We purified rhodopsin in CHAPS detergent with low detergent to protein ratio so the bulk of the sample ...

Designer lipid-like peptides [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A crucial bottleneck in membrane protein studies, particularly G-protein coupled receptors, is the notorious difficulty of finding an optimal detergent that can solubilize them and maintain their stability and function. Here we report rapid production of

Atropine-functionalized gold nanoparticles binding to muscarinic receptors after passage across the intestinal epithelium

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2022
Gold nanoparticles have a high potential to be a treatment of diseases by their specific drug delivery properties and multivalent receptor stimulation.

G Protein–Coupled Receptor Heteromers [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Pharmacology and Toxicology, 2016
G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs) compose one of the largest families of membrane proteins involved in intracellular signaling. They are involved in numerous physiological and pathological processes and are prime candidates for drug development. Over the past decade, an increasing number of studies have reported heteromerization between GPCRs.
