New techniques and one of the brightest X-ray sources on the planet were used by researchers to map the 3-D structure of an important cellular gatekeeper in a more natural state than possible before. The new approach, published December 20, 2013, in the journal iScience/i, is a major advance in exploring G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs)-a vast, hard-to-study family of proteins that play a key role in human health. GPCRs are targeted by an estimated 40 percent ...Monday, 23 December 2013
Researchers Develop New Methods To Map Important Drug Targets
New techniques and one of the brightest X-ray sources on the planet were used by researchers to map the 3-D structure of an important cellular gatekeeper in a more natural state than possible before.
