Peptide ligand recognition by G protein-coupled receptors [PDF]
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2015 The past few years have seen spectacular progress in the structure determination of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). We now have structural representatives from classes A, B, C, and F.

Acidic Tumor Microenvironment and pH-Sensing G protein-Coupled Receptors [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2013 The tumor microenvironment is acidic due to glycolytic cancer cell metabolism, hypoxia, and deficient blood perfusion. It is proposed that acidosis in the tumor microenvironment is an important stress factor and selection force for cancer cell somatic ...

Designer lipid-like peptides [PDF]
, 2011 A crucial bottleneck in membrane protein studies, particularly G-protein coupled receptors, is the notorious difficulty of finding an optimal detergent that can solubilize them and maintain their stability and function. Here we report rapid production of

G Protein-Coupled Receptors in Cancer [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2016 Despite the fact that G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest signal-conveying receptor family and mediate many physiological processes, their role in tumor biology is underappreciated. Numerous lines of evidence now associate GPCRs and their downstream signaling targets in cancer growth and development.

Rules and mechanisms governing G protein coupling selectivity of GPCRs
Cell Reports, 2023 Summary: G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) convert extracellular stimuli into intracellular signaling by coupling to heterotrimeric G proteins of four classes: Gi/o, Gq, Gs, and G12/13.

Interaction of the Xanthine Nucleotide Binding Goα Mutant with G Protein-coupled Receptors [PDF]
, 1998 We constructed a double mutant version of the α subunit of Go that was regulated by xanthine nucleotides instead of guanine nucleotides (GoαX). We investigated the interaction between GoαX and G protein-coupled receptors in vitro.

G Protein-Coupled Receptors: Undervalued Targets for Cancer Therapy
Iraqi Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2022 Despite the G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) being the largest family of signalling proteins at the surface of cells, their potential to be targeted in cancer therapy is still under-utilised.

G protein-coupled receptors not currently in the spotlight: free fatty acid receptor 2 and GPR35 [PDF]
, 2017 It is widely appreciated that G protein-coupled receptors have been the most successfully exploited class of targets for the development of small molecule medicines. Despite this, to date, less than 15% of the non-olfactory G protein-coupled receptors in

Evolution of vertebrate GnRH receptors from the perspective of a basal vertebrate
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2012 This minireview provides the current status on gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptors (GnRH-R) in vertebrates, from the perspective of a basal vertebrate, the sea lamprey, and provides an evolutionary scheme based on the recent advance of whole genome ...
