Research List
  • Structural and molecular studies of GPCRs activation and signal transduction
  • G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are targeted by about a third of clinically used drugs.Many GPCRs couple to more than one type of heterotrimeric G proteins, become phosphorylated by any of several different GRKs, and then bind one or more types of arrestin.
