New members in the GPCR photo gallery! Crystal structures of class B G protein-coupled receptors, which bind peptide hormones, have been solved [see picture of the corticotropin-releasing factor receptor 1 (blue) and a bound allosteric nonpeptide antagonist (green)]. The structures provide a basis for a rational design of better drugs for diabetes, osteoporosis, migraine, or depression.
GPCR 图片库迎来新成员!现已解析出结合肽类激素的 B 类 G 蛋白偶联受体的晶体结构[见图,促肾上腺皮质释放因子受体 1(蓝色)和结合的变构非肽类拮抗剂(绿色)]。这些结构为合理设计治疗糖尿病、骨质疏松症、偏头痛或抑郁症的更好药物提供了基础。
