Cheloha builds nanobody-GPCR ligand conjugates that rescue weak peptides, engineer receptor selectivity And can selectivity for one receptor subtype be engineered without redesigning the ligand from scratch Conformation selectivity changes the duration of the signal PTH receptor exists in G-protein coupled Attaching a short PTH fragment to a PTHR1-selective nanobody produces a ligand selective for that subtype ; the same fragment attached to a PTHR2-selective nanobody redirects it entirely.

Hay on class B GPCRs, RAMPs, and the selectivity problem in CGRP-targeted migraine therapies - what the The Erenumab Selectivity Problem Erenumab, the first monoclonal antibody approved against a GPCR complex are conformational and fine-grained, not structurally obvious, making ligand selectivity considerably , selective ligands, and bimolecular fluorescence complementation in vivo 26:42 Structural data and what Because we don't have selective ligands."

John Streicher on how HSP90 flips direction between brain and spinal cord, why isoform-selective inhibitors Current lines of work include isoform-selective HSP90 inhibition as a strategy for widening the opioid The "brain always wins" problem is solved by isoform selectivity, not by dose. With a non-selective HSP90 inhibitor given systemically, the brain effect dominates and pain relief is The route from "intrathecal only" to "oral pill" runs through isoform selectivity.

Receptor Signaling Bias: A Valuable and Accessible Property of New Drug Candidates Turning functional selectivity This phenomenon, receptor signaling bias or functional selectivity, is now recognized as a meaningful detect and quantify it using reliable functional assays, and discusses how these data can guide lead selection explanations of biased signaling and co-authored the widely-applied simple method for quantifying functional selectivity

And yet approved therapies that selectively target these receptors remain remarkably scarce. One reason is that selectivity in this family is not just a matter of receptor subtype. subtype pharmacology - the four subtypes, their G protein coupling profiles, and why ubiquity creates selectivity Comeo's work uses selective antagonist controls and NanoBRET-tagged receptor constructs to distinguish collaboration, and not fearing the unknown 54:44 The dopamine rush that keeps scientists coming back SELECTED
