  • Community guidelines for GPCR ligand bias: IUPHAR review 32

    Depending on which ligand activates a receptor, it can engage different intracellular transducers. 'biased signalling' paradigm requires that we now characterize physiological signalling not just by receptors but by ligand-receptor pairs. The guidelines will aid consistency and clarity, as the basic receptor research and drug discovery communities

  • Structural basis of adhesion GPCR GPR110 activation by stalk peptide and G-proteins coupling

    October 2022 "Adhesion G protein-coupled receptors (aGPCRs) are keys of many physiological events and via an autoproteolysis process that removes the inhibitory GAIN domain on the extracellular side of receptor and releases a stalk peptide to bind and activate the transmembrane side of receptor. This is also where Gq/Gs bind the receptor through both hydrophobic and polar interaction, while Gi/G12 /G13 engage receptor mainly through hydrophobic interaction.

  • Statin-induced increase in actin polymerization modulates GPCR dynamics and compartmentalization

    Specifically, we explore the role of actin cytoskeleton in regulating the dynamics of the serotonin1A receptor , a crucial neurotransmitter G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) that plays a major role in the generation For this, we analyzed the lateral dynamics of the serotonin1A receptor in cholesterol-depleted cells Our results indicate that lateral diffusion parameters of serotonin1A receptors in normal cells are consistent Interestingly, these parameters are altered in cholesterol-depleted cells and the receptor exhibits dynamic
