The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) invites you to participate in a short survey about your
interaction with the ARDC and use of our national research infrastructure and services. The survey will take
approximately 5 minutes and is anonymous. It’s open to anyone who uses our digital research infrastructure
services including Reasearch Link Australia.
We will use the information you provide to improve the national research infrastructure and services we
deliver and to report on user satisfaction to the Australian Government’s National Collaborative Research
Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS) program.
Please take a few minutes to provide your input. The survey closes COB Friday 29 May 2026.

Summary
Structural insights into activation, dynamics and bias of GPCRs. The project aims to investigate the mechanisms underlying activation, biased agonism and G protein selectivity of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) by utilising the adenosine A1 receptor as a model system. This project expects to generate knowledge in the area of GPCR biology using an interdisciplinary approach including structural biology, pharmacology, biochemistry and protein engineering. The expected outcomes include (i) unde ....Structural insights into activation, dynamics and bias of GPCRs. The project aims to investigate the mechanisms underlying activation, biased agonism and G protein selectivity of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) by utilising the adenosine A1 receptor as a model system. This project expects to generate knowledge in the area of GPCR biology using an interdisciplinary approach including structural biology, pharmacology, biochemistry and protein engineering. The expected outcomes include (i) understanding the structural mechanisms underlying GPCR activation, (ii) biased agonism and (iii) G protein selectivity. This should provide significant benefits, such as advancement of fundamental knowledge in GPCR biology and pharmacology that could also one day lead to therapeutic development.Read moreRead less
