- Overview of adhesion GPCRs self-activation
Among the different families of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), adhesion GPCRs (aGPCRs) represent were not already complex enough, during their synthesis in the endoplasmic reticulum, many of these receptors Finally a comparative close analysis of the different Cryo-EM receptor structures with Gq, Gs, Gi and G12 showed that Gq/Gs have a similar mode of receptor binding, while Gi/G12 use a different engagement Boucard, A.A., Self-activated adhesion receptor proteins visualized.

- Structural basis of adhesion GPCR GPR110 activation by stalk peptide and G-proteins coupling
October 2022 "Adhesion G protein-coupled receptors (aGPCRs) are keys of many physiological events and via an autoproteolysis process that removes the inhibitory GAIN domain on the extracellular side of receptor and releases a stalk peptide to bind and activate the transmembrane side of receptor. This is also where Gq/Gs bind the receptor through both hydrophobic and polar interaction, while Gi/G12 /G13 engage receptor mainly through hydrophobic interaction.
- Community guidelines for GPCR ligand bias: IUPHAR review 32
Depending on which ligand activates a receptor, it can engage different intracellular transducers. 'biased signalling' paradigm requires that we now characterize physiological signalling not just by receptors but by ligand-receptor pairs.
