1. G protein-coupled receptor regulation: The role of protein interactions and receptor trafficking
Sammanfattning : The superfamily of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) is the largest gene family in the human genome. GPCR-mediated signaling operates in every human cell, and about 50% of existing clinically useful drugs act through GPCR. LÄS MER
2. Molecular simulations of G protein-coupled receptors : A journey into structure-based ligand design and receptor function
Sammanfattning : The superfamily of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) contains a large number of important drug targets. These cell surface receptors recognize extracellular signaling molecules, which stimulates intracellular pathways that play major roles in human physiology. LÄS MER
3. Free energy calculations of G protein-coupled receptor modulation : New methods and applications
Sammanfattning : G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are membrane proteins that transduce the signals of extracellular ligands, such as hormones, neurotransmitters and metabolites, through an intracellular response via G proteins. They are abundant in human physiology and approximately 34% of the marketed drugs target a GPCR. LÄS MER
4. Classification, Evolution, Pharmacology and Structure of G protein-coupled Receptors
Sammanfattning : G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) are integral membrane proteins with seven α-helices that translate a remarkable diversity of signals into cellular responses. The superfamily of GPCRs is among the largest and most diverse protein families in vertebrates. LÄS MER
5. Evolution of the G protein-coupled receptor signaling system : Genomic and phylogenetic analyses
Sammanfattning : Signal transduction pathways mediated by G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and their intracellular coupling partners, the heterotrimeric G proteins, are crucial for several physiological functions in eukaryotes, including humans. This thesis describes a broad genomic survey and extensive comparative phylogenetic analysis of GPCR and G protein families from a wide selection of eukaryotes. LÄS MER
