Concepts of GPCR-controlled navigation in the immune system

, 2019
G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling is essential for the spatiotemporal control of leukocyte dynamics during immune responses. For efficient navigation through mammalian tissues, most leukocyte types express more than one GPCR on their surface ...

Coordinated RNA-Seq and peptidomics identify neuropeptides and G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) in the large pine weevil Hylobius abietis, a major forestry pest [PDF]

, 2018
Hylobius abietis (Linnaeus), or large pine weevil (Coleoptera, Curculionidae), is a pest of European coniferous forests. In order to gain understanding of the functional physiology of this species, we have assembled a de novo transcriptome of H. abietis,

GPCR kinase knockout cells reveal the impact of individual GRKs on arrestin binding and GPCR regulation

Nature Communications, 2022
GPCR kinases (GRKs) regulate GPCR interactions and thus functions. Here, the authors report a comprehensive panel of GRK knockout cells, used to assess the GRK-specific β-arrestin recruitment. Selective engagement of GRKs induces distinct GPCR–β-arrestin

Deep hierarchical embedding for simultaneous modeling of GPCR proteins in a unified metric space

Scientific Reports, 2021
GPCR proteins belong to diverse families of proteins that are defined at multiple hierarchical levels. Inspecting relationships between GPCR proteins on the hierarchical structure is important, since characteristics of the protein can be inferred from ...

Signal Transduction and Pathogenic Modifications at the Melanocortin-4 Receptor: A Structural Perspective [PDF]

, 2019
The melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R) can be endogenously activated by binding of melanocyte-stimulating hormones (MSH), which mediates anorexigenic effects. In contrast, the agouti-related peptide (AgRP) acts as an endogenous inverse agonist and suppresses
