Molecular determinants of GPCR oligomerization

, 2020
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) have been shown to associate into dimers and oligomers in a receptor-specific manner, but the molecular determinants that control and modulate receptor association are less well understood.

The Korea Chemical Bank: Over 25 years of national chemical infrastructure alongside KRICT's 50‐year journey

Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.
This graphic abstract illustrates the role of the Korea Chemical Bank (KCB) as a central national hub that integrates government R&D, academic compound deposits, and industrial drug discovery throughout the latter half of KRICT's 50‐year history. Abstract Since its establishment in 2000 under the Korea Research Institute of Chemical Technology (KRICT),

The Application of Artificial Intelligence Accelerates G Protein-Coupled Receptor Ligand Discovery

Engineering
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are crucial players in various physiological processes, making them attractive candidates for drug discovery. However, traditional approaches to GPCR ligand discovery are time-consuming and resource-intensive.

Status and future of recombinant adeno‐associated virus vector manufacturing

Biotechnology Progress, EarlyView.
Abstract Sixty years of adeno‐associated virus (AAV) research illustrates a trajectory marked by basic science exploration, iterative innovation, persistent challenges, a number of clinical setbacks, as well as commercial therapeutic triumphs. This continual evolution has led to recombinant AAV (rAAV) becoming a cornerstone of modern gene therapy ...

Peptide Marriages: Modular Assembly of Multi‐Agonist Therapeutics

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
A modular polyethylene glycol (PEG) scaffold enables rapid assembly of dual peptide agonists using strain‐promoted azide–alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC) and copper‐catalysed azide–alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC). Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) and amylin agonists were combined with controlled valency, yielding low‐picomolar activity and receptor‐selective ...

Do Brain Extracellular Fluid Concentrations Predict PET‐Inferred Receptor Occupancy in Human CNS? A Mechanistic Model‐Based Analysis of Dopamine D2 Receptor Ligands

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
A mechanistic CNS PBPK model framework was applied to eight antipsychotic D2 receptor ligands, comparing brain extracellular fluid (brainECF) and brain cell membrane (brainM) as biophase for predicting human receptor occupancy compared against PET neuroimaging data. BrainM concentrations showed improved agreement with PET‐derived receptor occupancy for

In silico analysis of putative interactions identifies fibroblasts as hubs for cell–cell communication during early regeneration of the zebrafish heart

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The zebrafish heart regenerates upon injury. During injury response, fibroblasts and endothelial cells accumulate at the site of damage, and cardiomyocyte cell cycle reentry allows cardiac muscle regrowth. It is relevant to understand how the different cell types communicate with each other to coordinate regeneration.

G-protein-coupled receptor diversity and evolution in the closest living relatives of metazoa

eLife
G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) play a pivotal role in the perception of environmental cues across eukaryotic diversity. Although GPCRs have been relatively well characterized in metazoans, GPCR signaling is poorly understood in their sister group ...

Membrane lipid metabolism as a regulatory frontier in neural crest biology: Roles for sphingolipids, cholesterol, and lipid rafts

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Neural crest cells are multipotent, migratory stem‐like cells essential for vertebrate development that contribute broadly to many tissues including the craniofacial skeleton, peripheral nervous system, and pigment‐producing cells. Their development progresses through phases of induction, specification, delamination, migration, and ...

Biasing GPCR Signaling from Inside

, 2014
The discovery of "functional selectivity" or "biased signaling" through G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) has redefined the classical GPCR signaling paradigm.
