Formation and Stability of Synaptic Receptor Domains [PDF]
Phys. Rev. Lett. 106, 238104 (2011), 2010 Neurotransmitter receptor molecules, concentrated in postsynaptic domains along with scaffold and a number of other molecules, are key regulators of signal transmission across synapses.

Protein connectivity in chemotaxis receptor complexes [PDF]
, 2015 The chemotaxis sensory system allows bacteria such as Escherichia coli to swim towards nutrients and away from repellents. The underlying pathway is remarkably sensitive in detecting chemical gradients over a wide range of ambient concentrations ...

KLHL12 promotes non-lysine ubiquitination of the dopamine receptors D-4.2 and D-4.4, but not of the ADHD-associated D-4.7 variant [PDF]
, 2015 Dopamine D-4 Receptor Polymorphism : The dopamine D-4 receptor has an important polymorphism in its third intracellular loop that is intensively studied and has been associated with several abnormal conditions, among others, attention deficit ...

Nature Communications, 2021 Glucocorticoid receptors (GR) are thought to bind DNA as dimers or monomers, to regulate different transcription pathways. Here, the authors perform genome-wide studies on GRs with mutations that impair dimerization and provide evidence that monomeric ...

Receptors | Angiotensin Receptors
, 2021 The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAS) is a vital hormone-receptor system that regulates cardiovascular and renal functions. In this article, we discuss exciting new findings in the RAS field. Recently solved active state crystal structures of Angiotensin II type 1 (AT1R) and type 2 receptor (AT2R) helped in understanding receptor activation ...

Residue 6.43 defines receptor function in class F GPCRs
Nature Communications, 2021 The class Frizzled of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) consist of ten Frizzled (FZD1-10) subtypes and Smoothened (SMO). Here the Schulte laboratory demonstrates that FZDs differ substantially from SMO in receptor activation-associated conformational ...

Actin cytoskeleton-dependent regulation of corticotropin-releasing factor receptor heteromers [PDF]
, 2017 Stress responses are highly nuanced and variable, but how this diversity is achieved by modulating receptor function is largely unknown. Corticotropin-releasing factor receptors (CRFRs), class B G protein–coupled receptors, are pivotal in mediating ...

Revising Berg-Purcell for finite receptor kinetics [PDF]
, 2021 From nutrient uptake, to chemoreception, to synaptic transmission, many systems in cell biology depend on molecules diffusing and binding to membrane receptors. Mathematical analysis of such systems often neglects the fact that receptors process molecules at finite kinetic rates.

Fee Arrangements and Fee Shifting: Lessons From the Experience in Ontario [PDF]
, 1984 About one-third of oestrogen receptor alpha-positive breast cancer patients treated with tamoxifen relapse. Here we identify the nuclear receptor retinoic acid receptor alpha as a marker of tamoxifen resistance. Using quantitative mass spectrometry-based
