Researchers from the University of Bonn are using an innovative method to watch immune receptors go about their business. Immune cells are capable of detecting infections just like a sniffer dog, ...
For the first time, researchers have determined how a human olfactory receptor captures an airborne scent molecule, the pivotal chemical event that triggers our sense of smell. Whether it evokes roses ...
Taste, pain, or response to stress—nearly all essential functions in the human body are regulated by molecular switches called G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Researchers at the University of ...
Lefkowitz started to trace cell receptors in 1968. Using radioactivity, he managed to unveil several receptors, including one for adrenalin, the β-adrenergic receptor. His team then extracted the ...
About one-third of all drugs approved by the Food and Drug Administration target the largest family of cell membrane ...
In 2019, Steven Mansoor, M.D., Ph.D., a physician–scientist at Oregon Health & Science University, and his research team made a groundbreaking discovery: They determined the first complete structure ...
Our easy-to-read fact sheet provides clinicians with an overview of the mechanism of GLP-1 agonists. Our easy-to-read fact sheets provide clinicians with reliable information to share with patients ...
An international team of scientists has unveiled the most comprehensive model yet that explains how cells control the flow of ...
Researchers used GPS-like tracking to observe how a key G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) moves, revealing the core mechanism behind vital body functions. G protein-coupled receptors are embedded in ...
