A GPS-like technique has been used to track G protein-coupled receptor movement, revealing how these essential receptors function. Although G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are crucial to the ...

G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) has emerged as a pivotal regulator in the pathophysiology of heart failure. GRK2 mediates the phosphorylation of activated G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs ...

Many people are familiar with histamine, a biological molecule that serves as a key driver of allergic reactions and other ...

A recent study published in Engineering delves into the complex mechanisms of drug addiction, highlighting the crucial role of astrocytic G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). This research offers ...

Taste, pain, or response to stress — nearly all essential functions in the human body are regulated by molecular switches called G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Researchers at the University of ...

A research team of the University Medical Center Mainz has succeeded in observing for the first time how G protein-coupled ...

Researchers have discovered how unstructured segments of surface proteins regulate the biological function of a cell. Their study, published in Nature Communications, sheds new light on the interplay ...

Cystic fibrosis is a life-threatening disease predominantly with respiratory symptoms. Most of the subjects with the disease harbor the F508del variant in the CFTR gene that causes the protein to ...
