Thanks to advancements in cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) technology, there has been a rapid increase The road map of CCR5 and CCR2 activation The structure of CCR5 has been studied in complex with various It has been demonstrated that the shorter truncation variant, CCL15L, exhibits bias toward G-protein signaling, which has been structurally related to a conformational change of Y2917.43 tilted toward TM2 In addition, it has a glutamate residue at position 3.45, which is not found in human class A GPCRs,

For this reason, GPCRs have been a focus of drug development for decades due to their role in regulating Conventional GPCR drug discovery has largely focused on orthosteric sites, but recent breakthroughs in understanding allosteric modulation have opened up new avenues for drug development. Over the past decade, there has been a notable growth in the discovery of allosteric modulators for GPCRs While this has the potential to enhance GPCR subtype-selectivity, it also presents a significant challenge
