- Overview of adhesion GPCRs self-activation
Last month a very detailed paper analyzed the molecular mechanisms of the aGPCRs self-activation as well This paper proposes a series of molecular mechanisms that would be occurring during the self-activation In view of the above, these new findings clearly demonstrate part of the molecular mechanisms involved Molecular cell, 82(22), 4340–4352.e6.
