G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are integral membrane proteins with seven membrane-spanning helices. Upon binding to a ligand – which can range from small molecules like cyclic AMP to ...

Adhesion G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are a group of cell-surface sensors associated with many body functions and ...

A new study in Engineering explores the role of astrocytic G protein-coupled receptors in drug addiction. It shows that these receptors, including ...

A recent study published in Nature by a research team from the United States and China introduced a new class of engineered G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) called programmable antigen-gated ...

A new study shows how common gut bacteria can metabolize certain oral medications that target cellular receptors called GPCRs, potentially rendering these important drugs less effective.

Title : Hemodynamic effects of TX45 , a long-acting Fc-relaxin fusion, in Group 2 pulmonary hypertension patients. Session : Late-breaking science in heart failure, cardiomyopathies, pulmonary ...

Researchers have found that gut bacteria can interfere with the effectiveness of over 400 commonly used medications that ...

To demonstrate the power of their model, the researchers applied it to two biologically significant systems: the RAS-RAF complex and G Protein-Coupled Receptors (GPCRs). The RAS-RAF complex plays ...

GPCRs are important because a significant portion of existing drugs target them to act on cells. In fact, 34% of FDA-approved drugs are based on these receptors. "Having detailed information about ...

(Tectonic), a clinical stage biotechnology company focused on the discovery and development of therapeutic proteins and antibodies that modulate the activity of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs ...

The proteins – large molecules that play many important roles in the body – help to relay information and are known GPCRs, or ...
