- Did you know that certain ergot derivatives can produce wash-resistant signalling through the 5-HT2B receptor persisting for many hours without losing potency or efficacy? By using signalling assays, radioligand binding assay, and microscopy, Gaidarov et al. suggested that this phenomenon results from persistently/irreversibly internalised signalling receptor complexes.

- Think βCGRP is just αCGRP’s understudy? Think again. New research shows that βCGRP triggers distinct receptor signaling profiles across the CGRP receptor family, challenging the long-held assumption of redundancy. 🔬 A closer look reveals differences in G protein coupling, second messenger production, and receptor trafficking. 📊 This could reshape how we understand CGRP-related physiology—and how we target it in drug design. 🧠 Pain, inflammation, metabolism: the implications go far beyond signaling bias. 🔗 Read the full paper in Biochemistry: Unique Biased Agonism Profile of βCGRP on CGRP Family Receptors #GPCR #CGRP #DrugDiscovery #Pharmacology #SignalTransduction #Neuropeptides | Dr. GPCR Ecosystem

- How do GRK-specific phosphorylation barcodes influence β-arrestin binding to GPCRs? New cryo-EM structures from Chen et al. (Nature, 2025) reveal that β-arrestin1 and β-arrestin2 form distinct complexes with ACKR3 depending on whether it's phosphorylated by GRK2 or GRK5, shaping arrestin conformation, complex stability, and engagement mode. Surprisingly, arrestin’s finger loop didn’t dive into the receptor core. Instead, it latched onto the micelle surface, breaking canonical expectations. Also, β-arrestin2 lacks a membrane anchor, making it more dynamic — a potential clue to its functional specialization. These findings underscore how barcode location + arrestin isoform = unique signaling outcomes. open book Read the full study: Inside Out: Mapping GPCRs from Membrane Codes to Market Moves #GPCRs #Arrestin #ACKR3 #GRKs #CryoEM #StructuralBiology #SignalingBias #Phosphorylation #DrGPCR | Dr. GPCR Ecosystem
