THE CONCISE GUIDE TO PHARMACOLOGY 2019/20: G protein‐coupled receptors
British Journal of Pharmacology, 2019 The Concise Guide to PHARMACOLOGY 2019/20 is the fourth in this series of biennial publications. The Concise Guide provides concise overviews of the key properties of nearly 1800 human drug targets with an emphasis on selective pharmacology (where ...

G Protein-Coupled Receptors as Targets for Approved Drugs: How Many Targets and How Many Drugs?
Molecular Pharmacology, 2018 Estimates vary regarding the number of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), the largest family of membrane receptors that are targeted by approved drugs, and the number of such drugs that target GPCRs.

REGA-SIGN: Development of a Novel Set of NanoBRET-Based G Protein Biosensors
Biosensors, 2023 Despite G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) being important theapeutic targets, the signaling properties of many GPCRs remain poorly characterized. GPCR activation primarily initiates heterotrimeric G protein signaling. To detect ligand-induced G protein

The Molecular Basis of G Protein-Coupled Receptor Activation.
Annual Review of Biochemistry, 2018 G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) mediate the majority of cellular responses to external stimuli. Upon activation by a ligand, the receptor binds to a partner heterotrimeric G protein and promotes exchange of GTP for GDP, leading to dissociation of the

Challenges, 2018 Protein ADP-ribosylation is a reversible post-translational modification of cellular proteins that is catalysed by enzymes that transfer one (mono) or several (poly) units of ADP-ribose from β-NAD+ to a specific amino acid of the target protein. The

Multi-Omics Analysis of Multiple Glucose-Sensing Receptor Systems in Yeast
Biomolecules, 2022 The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has long been used to produce alcohol from glucose and other sugars. While much is known about glucose metabolism, relatively little is known about the receptors and signaling pathways that indicate glucose availability.

MAPKs in development: insights from Dictyostelium signaling pathways
Biomolecular Concepts, 2011 Mitogen activated protein kinases (MAPKs) play important roles in the development of eukaryotic organisms through the regulation of signal transduction pathways stimulated by external signals.

Contribution of the kinetics of G protein dissociation to the characteristic modifications of N-type calcium channel activity [PDF]
Neuroscience Research 56, 3 (2006) 332-43, 2009 Direct G protein inhibition of N-type calcium channels is recognized by characteristic biophysical modifications. In this study, we quantify and simulate the importance of G protein dissociation on the phenotype of G protein-regulated whole-cell currents.

Probing the Viscoelastic Properties of Aqueous Protein Solutions using Molecular Dynamics Simulations [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 We performed molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the viscoelastic properties of aqueous protein solutions containing an antifreeze protein, a toxin protein, and bovine serum albumin. These simulations covered a temperature range from 280 K to 340 K.
