Every receptor tells a story but GPCRs speak a language of organization. Dr. Michelle Halls unpacks how GPCR signaling isn’t just about ligand–receptor interaction. Home → Flash News → Every receptor tells a story Every receptor tells a story Published on November 11, 2025 Category Dr.GPCR Podcast Every receptor tells a story — but GPCRs speak a language of organization. Dr. Michelle Halls unpacks how GPCR signaling isn’t just about ligand–receptor interaction. It’s about where and how signaling happens — spatially confined microdomains, scaffolding proteins, and preassembled complexes that fine-tune the cell’s response. This level of organization defines specificity in signaling, and understanding it changes how we think about drug targeting and disease mechanisms. It’s a moment that reframes GPCR biology from static pathways to dynamic, organized systems — where complexity is the key to precision. 🎧 Watch this moment from our conversation, then listen to the full episode on leadership, luck, and GPCR signaling: 👉 https://www.ecosystem.drgpcr.com/dr-gpcr-podcast/leadership-luck-and-gpcr-signaling #GPCR #DrGPCR Previous Next Recent Articles Decoding Schild Analysis: The Pharmacologist’s Lens on Competitive Antagonism Drug discovery often assumes receptor inhibition follows simple rules—agonist binds, antagonist blocks, and data fit neatly into predictable curves. Yet, any pharmacologist who’s pushed beyond textbook theory knows: biology rarely plays fair. Schild analysis remains one of the few conceptual anchors that can tell us when “simple” truly is simple—and when deeper receptor dynamics are at play. Terry's Desk 4 hours ago How GPCR Collaboration Built an Innovation Engine When you walk into a typical academic lab, the boundaries are obvious: this PI’s corner, that group’s benches, their grants, their silos. But in Melbourne, a quiet experiment challenged that model — and it worked.

AI is transforming GPCR modeling. Jens Carlsson challenges scientists to go beyond explaining data — and start predicting the future of receptor function and drug discovery. Home → Flash News → ep 175 with jens carlsson clip 3 AI is changing how we think about structure, function, and discovery Published on November 4, 2025 Category Dr. GPCR Podcast AI is changing how we think about structure, function, and discovery — but Jens Carlsson reminds us: the real test isn’t whether we can explain today’s data, it’s whether we can predict tomorrow’s results . In this clip, Jens unpacks a mindset shift that every computational scientist should hear. For decades, molecular modeling focused on explaining — rationalizing why a ligand binds, why a mutation shifts signaling, why a simulation behaves a certain way. But explaining is retrospective. Prediction is transformative. With tools like AlphaFold , his lab can now model receptor–peptide complexes in seconds — an achievement that once took months. Yet Jens’s caution stands: prediction must be proven. A good model doesn’t just match published structures; it forecasts new biology, new ligands, and new function. That’s where the future of GPCR research lies — not in describing the past, but in anticipating it. Whether you’re running simulations, screening compounds, or designing next-gen molecules, this insight reframes what “success” in computational pharmacology really means. 👉 Watch the full episode: model predict discover #GPCR #DrGPCR Previous Next Recent Articles

Access expert CRO advisory services through the Dr. GPCR Ecosystem. Get guidance, strategies, and insights to optimize your GPCR research and drug discovery projects. Home About Services News Get in Touch Welcome CRO & Vendor Advisory Your Science Is Strong. Your Process Should Be, Too. I help CRO teams bring structure to collaboration—so your data gets acted on, not overlooked. When biotech partners trust your process, they come back again and again. You deliver high-quality data. But when timelines shift, expectations blur, or feedback loops break down, even the best work can lose momentum. Let’s turn your scientific rigor into results that move programs—and people—forward. Power My Discovery Biotech Clients Want Results - Not Confusion Every CRO I work with has great science—but clients still struggle to understand the value. Here's what I hear from biotech teams: “We’re not sure what we’re getting—or when we’re getting it.” “The science is solid, but the communication is scattered.” “The data looks fine, but it doesn’t help us make decisions.” Great science isn’t enough if clients don’t feel aligned, informed, and in control. That’s where I come in. How I Help CROs Deliver High-Impact Science That Biotech Teams Trust Biotech Clients Stay in Sync With Your Team I work to strengthen communication & collaboration: • Facilitate smoother communication between technical teams and biotech clients • Set clear expectations and deliverables to build trust and reduce delays • Align teams across roles—from assay execution to client updates Data Turns Into Decisions—Not Delays I help turn great science into clear deliverables • Define program objectives and guide assay plans that support partner decisions • Translate discovery data into clear, actionable formats biotech teams can use • Streamline deliverables to reduce review cycles and accelerate go/no-go calls & shorten timelines Your Science Stays Focused on What Matters We work together to position your CRO for growth • Refine your offering to match what biotech teams actually need • Position your services to shorten sales cycles and increase repeat business • Turn client feedback into improvements that boost trust and outcomes Here's What CROs Are Saying "Before working with Yamina, we were generating high-quality data across biotech programs but often navigating evolving expectations and goals from different stakeholders. After partnering with her, communication became clearer, deliverables were better defined, and collaboration across teams ran more smoothly. She helped streamline complex projects and made the CRO–client relationship more effective and productive." - Anne Marie Quinn, CEO Montana Molecular Frequently Asked Questions 01 What kinds of CROs do you work with? Any CRO focused on GPCRs, pharmacology, discovery biology, or antibody discovery—regardless of size or location. 02 What happens when I reach out? We'll start with a focused conversation about your programs and current challenges. You'll leave with clarity—even if we don't end up working together. 03 Can you help on an ongoing basis? Yes.

Discover pHSense™ portfolio From binding to signaling to internalization: Cell-based fluorescence assays for complete GPCR characterization The principle of pHSense™ relies on the pH-dependent fluorescence activation of a europium-labeled antibody to monitor receptor internalization in live cells. Neutral pH = low signal: The probe is minimally fluorescent at extracellular neutral pH (≥7), which means it doesn't emit a strong signal when bound to the surface. Internalization into acidic compartments = signal activation: Upon receptor-mediated endocytosis, the probe is internalized into acidic intracellular compartments (like early/late endosomes and lysosomes). The europium complex becomes increasingly fluorescent as the pH drops, enabling dynamic tracking of internalization. Time-Resolved Fluorescence (TRF) = High Signal-to-Background: Europium’s long-lived fluorescence allows TRF detection, which effectively filters out short-lived background signals. This results in high sensitivity and specificity in no-wash, plate-based live-cell assays. pHSense™ Eu Anti-FLAG Designed for the detection of FLAG-tagged receptor and membrane protein internalization. View Product pHSense Eu SNAP Labeling Reagent Can be used to label receptors and membrane proteins carrying an extracellular SNAP sequence with a pHSense probe to monitor their internalization View Product pHSense Fab Anti-Human or Anti-Mouse IgG Fab fragments for monitoring GPCR and antibody internalization in unmodified cells The Fab Anti-Human IgG Eu-conjugate can be used in combination with a neutral anti-GPCR to address unmodified receptors in primary cells View Product The Fab Anti-Mouse IgG2 Eu-conjugate is suited to study mouse biologics targeting GPCR and confirm their internalization effects on receptors.

Inside the Science: A Conversation with Revvity's Dr. Eric Trinquet From Rare Earth Probes to Internalization Assays: The pH Sense Story If you’ve ever used HTRF or wondered what goes into making a product worthy of your next experiment, this is your backstage pass. More about this conversation Our Partnership Dr. GPCR Spotlights Revvity’s pHSense™ Reagents for Real-Time GPCR Internalization A new reagent family designed to unlock high-throughput internalization workflows—now featured across the Dr. GPCR Ecosystem Boston, MA – September 2025 — Dr. GPCR, the global nonprofit platform dedicated to advancing GPCR research and drug discovery, is proud to spotlight the launch of pHSense™, a new reagent family from Revvity designed to bring unprecedented clarity, speed, and scalability to the study of receptor internalization. Internalization is a core—but often overlooked—dimension of GPCR biology. Traditionally, studying it has meant long workflows, low throughput, or expensive imaging platforms. pHSense™ changes that by combining europium-based, pH-sensitive probes with no-wash, live-cell protocols and TRF-based detection—making it possible to monitor internalization in real time, in standard plate-based assays. “When we saw dose-dependent internalization in endogenous GLP1R cells—without microscopy—that was the turning point,” said Dr. Eric Trinquet, Director of Research and Development at Revvity. “We knew pHSense could offer something truly new to the GPCR field.” A Tool Designed for Real Research Needs Built on more than two decades of GPCR assay innovation, pHSense™ was developed to overcome three persistent barriers in internalization studies: Complexity of imaging-based workflows Lack of scalability for high-throughput screening Difficulty detecting endogenous receptor activity With pHSense™, scientists can finally move beyond proxy readouts and track GPCR internalization as it happens—even at physiological expression levels. All four formats are validated in well-established models like GLP1R and Mu opioid receptor (MOR), and are compatible with HTRF plate readers already used in most labs.
