- Structural landscape of the Chemokine Receptor system
Constitutive Activity of the viral CKR US28 and “Chemokine Scavenger” ACKR3 Both US28 and ACKR3 are constitutively US28 evolved high constitutive activity to evade host immunity, whereas ACKR3 functions as a homeostatic chemokine "scavenger" by downregulating extracellular chemokine gradients through constitutive internalization Experimental 3D structures of both receptors reveal that they employ distinct mechanisms for constitutive In ACKR3, the presence of a tyrosine at position 6.40 plays a role in its constitutive activity (Yen,

- Biotech Startup Failure: Why Teams Drift Off Course Without a Single Wrong Decision
They search for flawed assumptions, weak data, or execution gaps. But drift does not live there. Research advances. New initiatives start. Additional questions are explored.
- Targeting Intracellular Allosteric Sites in GPCRs
Recent advances in structural biology have allowed researchers to visualize the binding of allosteric
- Isoforms of GPR35 have distinct extracellular N-termini that allosterically modify...
Additionally, we employed optical assays in living cells to thoroughly profile both GPR35 isoforms for constitutive disulfide bridge between the N-terminus and extracellular loop 3, present in both isoforms, is crucial for constitutive
- Orthosteric vs. Allosteric Interactions: The Silent Decider of Safety and Success
implications for interpreting EC50 shifts, partial agonism, and assay readouts—especially in systems with constitutive orthosterically, allosterically, or with mixed mechanisms—and why that matters for interpreting EC₅₀ shifts and constitutive
- The Five Traps of Ignoring Kinetics
At equilibrium, these effects cancel. But kinetics unmasks them.
