Homology modeling relies on using the known structure of a homologous protein as a template to model the target results were striking: AlphaFold2 outperformed homology models, achieving a 60% hit rate for compounds targeting ligands and the cellular environment which are crucial for understanding how drugs can selectively target To fully understand GPCR behavior and optimize drug targeting across multiple receptor states, experimental AlphaFold accelerated discovery of psychotropic agonists targeting the trace amine-associated receptor

September 2022 "GPCRs are the most potential targets for drug discovery, however, their role in oncology we identified GPR108, a GPCR protein described in innate immune system, is a potential therapeutic target We identified gambogic acid (GA), a natural prenylated xanthone, selectively targeting GPR108. Overall, our findings supported GPR108 as a promising therapeutic target of cancer, and provided a small molecule inhibitor GA directly and selectively targeting GPR108 for cancer therapy."

June 2022 "G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) represent a major therapeutic target class as they play GPCRs continue to be regarded as one of the most tractable classes of drug targets and are targeted by 30%–40% of current drugs (Hauser et al., 2017), with annual sales of GPCR-targeting drugs in 2018 accounting In 2019, 5 out of 20 first-in-class approved therapeutic agents targeted GPCRs. Despite this high number of GPCR targeted drugs, only a small portion (∼110) of the human GPCRome (consisting
