Structure-based design of allosteric modulators for G protein-coupled receptors using molecular modelling and pharmacology experiments

Queen’s University Belfast School of Pharmacy

Almost all physiological processes are regulated through the activation of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). It has become widely accepted that most GPCRs possess binding sites spatially distinct from their natural ligand binding site (orthosteric site), termed as allosteric sites. Read more
