The function of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) which represent the largest class of both human membrane proteins and drug targets depends critically on their ability to …
Heterotrimetic G proteins consist of four subfamilies (G s, G i/o, G q/11, and G 12/13) that mediate signaling via G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), principally by receptors binding …
Natural genetic variation in the human genome is a cause of individual differences in responses to medications and is an underappreciated burden on public health. Although …

The 826 G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) in the human proteome regulate key physiological processes and thus have long been attractive drug targets. With the crystal …
The third intracellular loop (ICL3) of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) fold is important for the signal transduction process downstream of receptor activation,–. Despite this, the lack …
Class A G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are a large family of membrane proteins that mediate a wide variety of physiological functions, including vision, neurotransmission and …
