However, many businesses accept credit/debit cards. POSTER PRINTING Poster printing is the full responsibility of aGPCR Workshop 2024 attendees. Office Depot and Office Max offer services for poster printing. Close to Cinvestav, on “Instituto Politécnico Nacional” avenue, there are several small local businesses offering poster printing services. The average fare for poster printing is $10-$12. SIM CARD AND WIFI SIM cards can be easily purchased at the airport and Oxxo stores around the city. The average fare is $10-$12. Public Wi-Fi is available around the city, including at airports and subway stations, and just outside of Cinvestav. FOOD RESTRICTIONS Please share any food restrictions you might have (allergies, dietary, etc). We will try to accommodate you as best we can. GETTING TO THE VENUE UBER is the most recommended as it is a highly economical and safe way to reach Cinvestav from your housing accommodation. We recommend carpooling with others to reduce individual costs and to be environmentally friendly. Typical costs are $8 USD one way ($2 USD / person carpooling with four people).

A landmark Cell paper delivers the answer—mapping how conserved and variable sequence–structure elements govern interaction logic across 46 chemokines and 23 GPCRs. The result: a framework for designing ligands with altered receptor preferences. ♦️ Defines “public” vs. “private” binding determinants ♦️ Highlights role of structured + unstructured regions ♦️ Includes a web tool + viral chemokine engineering demo This is a must-read for GPCR modelers, immunopharmacologists, and ligand engineers. ➡️ Read the paper: https://www.cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092-8674(25)00398-8 #DrGPCR #GPCR #Chemokines #StructuralBiology #Pharmacology #ProteinEngineering #Immunology #DrugDiscovery Recent Articles Previous Next

Full Agenda Adhesion GPCR workshop 2024 CINVESTAV, Mexico City, Mexico October 23-25 Download PDF Program HERE < Back to Full Agenda Session IX / Technology capsule: Light on aGPCR signaling and function NovoiSMART - A new platform for GPCR antibody drug discovery Abstract Developing monoclonal antibody drugs against GPCRs and other multi-pass transmembrane targets, such as ion channels, remains a significant challenge. Novoprotein developed a NovoiSMART technology, utilizing mRNA-based immunization, which can overcome these obstacles by producing high-quality antibodies that more accurately mimic natural protein structures. This approach contrasts with other antigen forms like peptides or DNA, which face limitations in structural integrity and immunogenicity. mRNA technology, demonstrated in the success of COVID-19 vaccines, is emerging as a promising method for antibody discovery. Several case studies of GPCR and other multi-pass transmembrane targets are presented, including GPRC5D, Claudin 6 and Napi2b. These studies show that mRNA immunization yields higher antibody titers and greater epitope diversity compared to other methods. These examples underscore the potential of NovoiSMART technology in developing highly specific antibodies for complex targets, with implications for overcoming challenges like drug resistance and tumor escape. About Gavin Zhang Gavin is a currently a director of business and operations at Novoprotein Scientific. His research experience includes phylogenetics and cancer epigenetics.
