Advances in GPCR modeling evaluated by the GPCR Dock 2013 assessment: meeting new challenges. [PDF]
Despite tremendous successes of GPCR crystallography, the receptors with available structures represent only a small fraction of human GPCRs. An important role of the modeling community is to maximize structural insights for the remaining receptors and ...

LPA1-mediated inhibition of CXCR4 attenuates CXCL12-induced signaling and cell migration
Background G protein-coupled receptor heteromerization is believed to exert dynamic regulatory impact on signal transduction. CXC chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) and its ligand CXCL12, both of which are overexpressed in many cancers, play a pivotal role in ...

Uncovering G Protein-Coupled Receptors: Novel Targets and Biomarkers for Predicting Glioma Prognosis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Low‐grade gliomas (LGG) exhibit significant heterogeneity and recurrence risk. G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCR) contribute to glioma malignant progression, but their prognostic value remains unclear. This work attempts to formulate a GPCR‐based outcome‐predicting model for LGG. Methods Based on TCGA LGG data, the enrichment scores

BiasNet: A model to predict ligand bias towards GPCR signaling [PDF]
Signaling bias is a feature of many G–protein coupled receptor (GPCR) modulating drugs with clinical implications. Whether it is therapeutically advantageous for a drug to be G Protein biased or β-Arrestin (β-Arr) biased, depends on the context of the ...

Heparin-bound chemokine CXCL8 monomer and dimer are impaired for CXCR1 and CXCR2 activation: implications for gradients and neutrophil trafficking [PDF]
Chemokine CXCL8 plays a pivotal role in host immune response by recruiting neutrophils to the infection site. CXCL8 exists as monomers and dimers, and mediates recruitment by interacting with glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and activating CXCR1 and CXCR2 ...

A Benchmark for Accurate GPCR Ligand Binding Affinity Prediction with Free Energy Perturbation [PDF]
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are among the most important drug targets in the pharmaceutical industry. Free energy perturbation (FEP), which can accurately predict the relative binding free energies of drug molecules, is now widely used in drug ...
