- Transmembrane domains of GPCR dimers – a novel hot spot for drug discovery
In this study Xin Cai et al. highlight the importance of GPCR dimers in drug discovery referring to important conformational changes, allosteric properties, ligand and functional selectivity. But what are the conformation changes that drive GPCR dimerization? The interaction between two receptors in a dimer involves a conformational change in the transmembrane Interestingly, the amplitude of the conformational changes due to ligand binding is limited at these
