12 different G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) through selective coupling of Gs, Gi, or Gq proteins The structural basis for G protein subtype selectivity by these GPCRs remains elusive. We find that the macro-switch by the TM5-TM6 length is shared by class A GPCR-G protein structures. Together, these results present a common mechanism of Gs versus Gi protein coupling selectivity or promiscuity by class A GPCRs and extend the basis of ligand recognition at serotonin receptors."

Historically, ligands for GPCRs have been identified before their receptor counterparts. Therefore, matching a ligand to an orphan GPCRs, the process of de-orphanizing, is of great importance GPR84 is a Gi‐coupled class A GPCR mainly expressed in immune cells and microglia in the brain (Wojciechowicz CXCR2 and the adenosine A3 receptor (Gaidarov et al., 2018). #GPCR #DrGPCR#Ecosystem
