In this issue of Structure, Nojima et al. (2021) report the structure of the PGE-EP4-G complex by cryo-electron microscopy. This work shows unique modes of ligand binding, transduction mechanism, and G protein coupling of EP4, and serves as a starting point for development of more selective drugs.
在本期《结构》杂志中,野岛等人(2021)通过冷冻电镜报告了 PGE-EP4-G 复合物的结构。这项工作展示了 EP4 的独特配体结合方式、转导机制和 G 蛋白偶联,为开发更具选择性的药物提供了起点。
