Infectious diseases are illnesses caused by pathogenic microorganisms—including viruses, bacteria, fungi, and parasites—that invade a host, replicate, and ...
About one-third of all drugs approved by the Food and Drug Administration target the largest family of cell membrane receptors called G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). GPCRs are indispensable for ...
New research led by the University of Minnesota Medical School demonstrates that molecules acting as "molecular bumpers" and "molecular glues" can rewire G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling, ...
GPCR dynamics, shown in purple as the human A 2A receptor, and elegant modifications in activation pathways (allostery) indicated by the blue arrow, are critical for enabling GPCRs to bind to multiple ...

Structural findings reveal how distinct GPCR ligands create different levels of activation
G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are proteins triggered by ligands (protein-binding chemicals) from outside cells to transmit signals inside the cell. These signals are transmitted primarily ...
PI3K signaling pathways. Upon activation by RTK, GPCR, Integrin, and Ras, p110 loses inhibition by p85 and converts PIP2 to PIP3. PIP3 recruits AKT to the cell membrane, where AKT is activated through ...
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are expressed on the surface of cells and regulate a range of important functions. Because they are involved in so many sensory and physiological processes, ...
