Fine-tuning GPCR signaling: conformational dynamics and intracellular responses GPCR signaling is a complex Apart from G proteins, GPCRs engage other effectors for signaling modulation. GPCR kinases (GRKs) and β-arrestins are activated by agonist-bound GPCRs and interact with the receptor Recent years have seen cryo-EM dominate new GPCR structure determinations, offering insight into GPCR-effector In addition, the question of whether β-arrestin1 and 2 serve overlapping or distinct functions remains

demonstrate that the chemoreceptor genes, srg-36 and srg-37, which encode G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs Here, we show that SRG-36 and SRG-37 act as upstream GPCRs that activate EGL-30. C. elegans secretes a family of small-molecule pheromones called ascarosides, which serve various functions SRG-36 and SRG-37 are GPCRs for the dauer-inducing ascaroside, ascr#5. Thus, ascaroside signaling promotes axon regeneration by activating the GPCR-Gqα pathway.

Chemokine receptors (CKRs) belong to a subfamily of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and play a crucial helix (TM7) near ECL3, while the other links TM3 with ECL2, which is common to the broader class A GPCR Activation in Class A GPCRs Ligand binding in the orthosteric site leads to diverse activation mechanisms In addition, it has a glutamate residue at position 3.45, which is not found in human class A GPCRs, Check the original article at https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37212620/ #GPCR #DrGPCR #Ecosystem

β-arrestins (βarrs) play multifaceted roles in the function of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). βarrs typically interact with phosphorylated C-terminal tail (C tail) and transmembrane core (TM core) of GPCRs changes for βarr activation upon the C tail- and TM core-mediated interactions with a prototypical GPCR This plasticity of βarr conformation in complex with GPCRs engaged in different binding modes may explain
