G-Protein-Coupled Receptors [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1998 G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) constitute a huge family of membrane receptors to numerous hormones, neurotransmitters and diverse compounds. A large part of cardiovascular and neurological pharmacology is based upon the knowledge of these receptors and on the identification of molecules able to interfere with them, in an agonistic or antagonistic ...

Lysophospholipid G Protein-coupled Receptors [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2004 The many biological responses documented for lysophospholipids that include lysophosphatidic acid and sphingosine 1-phosphate can be mechanistically attributed to signaling through specific G protein-coupled receptors. At least nine receptors have now been identified, and the total number is likely to be larger.

G Protein–Coupled Receptor Deorphanizations [PDF]
Annual Review of Pharmacology and Toxicology, 2013 G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs) are major regulators of intercellular interactions. They initiate these actions by being activated by a wide variety of natural ligands. Historically, ligands were discovered first, but the advent of molecular biology reversed this trend.

Powdered G-Protein-Coupled Receptors [PDF]
The Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, 2016 Preparation and storage of functional membrane proteins such as G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are crucial to the processes of drug delivery and discovery. Here, we describe a method of preparing powdered GPCRs using rhodopsin as the prototype. We purified rhodopsin in CHAPS detergent with low detergent to protein ratio so the bulk of the sample ...

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 Receptor Heteromers [PDF]
Annual Review of Pharmacology and Toxicology, 2016 G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs) compose one of the largest families of membrane proteins involved in intracellular signaling. They are involved in numerous physiological and pathological processes and are prime candidates for drug development. Over the past decade, an increasing number of studies have reported heteromerization between GPCRs.

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.
