Essential proteins are stuck in an endless evolutionary arms race
Life’s most indispensable molecules are not the serene, unchanging fixtures they might appear to be. Even the proteins that ...
New research reveals previously unknown ways opioid receptors can function, opening the door to safer pain treatments.
Opioid receptors are a subset of G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs). These membrane proteins transmit signals into the cell ...
This new technique for studying cell receptors could have sweeping implications for drug development
Researchers created a tool capable of comprehensively mapping crucial interactions underlying drug efficacy in one superfamily of cell receptors. One in every three FDA-approved drugs targets a single ...
Receptor proteins, expressed on the cell surface or within the cell, bind to different signaling molecules, known as ligands, initiating cellular responses. Taste receptors, expressed in oral tissues, ...
Scientists in South Korea have used artificial intelligence (AI) and supercomputers to design a powerful new ...
