Opioid drugs are the gold standard for the management of pain, but their use is severely limited by dangerous and unpleasant side effects. All clinically available opioid analgesics bind to and activate the mu-opioid receptor (MOR), a heterotrimeric G ...

Computational Modeling for the Activation Cycle of G-proteins by G-protein-coupled Receptors [PDF]
In this paper, we survey five different computational modeling methods. For comparison, we use the activation cycle of G-proteins that regulate cellular signaling events downstream of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) as a driving example.

Heterotrimeric G Proteins [PDF]
Heterotrimeric G proteins, commonly known as G proteins are members of thelarge GTPase superfamily that are conserved from bacteria to mammals. G proteinsplay an essential role in cellular signaling by coupling many cell surface receptorsto effectors on ...

Watching G proteins at work [PDF]
It has been known for over a century that rod photoreceptors in the living retina contract and swell in response to light. Although it is still not known whether this structural light-response is of any functional significance, it has recently been possible to correlate the underlying molecular processes with the activation and deactivation of the ...

G-quadruplexes are four-stranded nucleic acid structures occurring in the genomes of all living organisms and viruses. It is increasingly evident that these structures play important molecular roles; generally, by modulating gene expression and overall ...

Insect Cell systems to Study the Communication of Mammalian Receptors and G proteins
Cells contain large and often diverse complements of receptors that bind circulating hormones, paracrine factors, and neurotransmitters and, in so doing, initiate events that culminate in the regulation of cell function.

Regulation of large and small G proteins by ubiquitination [PDF]
Many sensory and chemical signal inputs are transmitted by intracellular GTP-binding (G) proteins. G proteins make up two major subfamilies: "large" G proteins comprising three subunits and "small" G proteins, such as the proto-oncogene product RAS ...

G-quadruplex is a special secondary structure of nucleic acids in guanine-rich sequences of genome. G-quadruplexes have been proved to be involved in the regulation of replication, DNA damage repair, and transcription and translation of oncogenes or ...
