GPCR Structures - Turkey beta-1 Receptor - further insight into antagonist-induced structural changes


Another clutch of turkey beta-1 adrenergic GPCR structures has recently been released (PDBe:2ycw, PDBe:2ycx, PDBe:2ycy and PDBe:2ycz), accompanying a publication in PNAS. These structures contain three different ligands (S-Carazolol, Cyanopindolol and Iodocyanopindalol), and sample new crystal forms, and reveal newly ordered regions not previously observed - these structures represent the fully inactivated R form of the receptor.
