Cryo-EM structure of the human histamine H1 receptor/Gq complex
Nature Communications, 2021 Histamine receptors are effective targets for allergy treatments and antihistamines are the first choice of many allergic disorders, but the exact mechanism of agonist binding and receptor activation remain unknown.

Adenosine A1 receptor: Functional receptor-receptor interactions in the brain [PDF]
Purinergic Signalling, 2007 Over the past decade, many lines of investigation have shown that receptor-mediated signaling exhibits greater diversity than previously appreciated. Signal diversity arises from numerous factors, which include the formation of receptor dimers and interplay between different receptors.

Inhibition of Food Intake by PACAP in the Hypothalamic Ventromedial Nuclei is Mediated by NMDA Receptors [PDF]
, 2014 Central injections of pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) into the ventromedial nuclei (VMN) of the hypothalamus produce hypophagia that is dependent upon the PAC1 receptor; however, the signaling downstream of this receptor in the

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1981 Cells are endowed with specific cognitive molecules that function as receptors for hormones, neurotransmitters, and other intercellular messengers. The receptor molecules may be present in the plasma membrane, cytoplasm, or nucleus. When occupied by the messenger, the receptor is coupled to the cellular machinery that responds to the message-bearing ...

D3PM: a comprehensive database for protein motions ranging from residue to domain
BMC Bioinformatics, 2022 Background Knowledge of protein motions is significant to understand its functions. While currently available databases for protein motions are mostly focused on overall domain motions, little attention is paid on local residue motions.

Skeletal Muscle, 2011 Abstract Excitation-contraction coupling involves the faithful conversion of electrical stimuli to mechanical shortening in striated muscle cells, enabled by the ubiquitous second messenger, calcium. Crucial to this process are ryanodine receptors (RyRs), the sentinels of massive intracellular calcium stores contained within the sarcoplasmic ...

Single-molecule analysis of steroid receptor and cofactor action in living cells
Nature Communications, 2017 Transcription factors (TFs) are thought to regulate gene expression by stably binding to target DNA elements. Here, the authors use single-molecule tracking to analyse the dynamic behaviour of steroid receptors TFs and show that most specific ...

Stabilin Receptors: Role as Phosphatidylserine Receptors [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2019 Phosphatidylserine is a membrane phospholipid that is localized to the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane. Phosphatidylserine externalization to the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane is an important signal for various physiological processes, including apoptosis, platelet activation, cell fusion, lymphocyte activation, and regenerative axonal ...
