Funded Activity Summary

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest family of membrane proteins in the human genome, and drugs targeting these receptors account for 35% of marketed drugs. This project aims to determine atomic-level structural information of how drugs bind and specifically interact with therapeutically relevant GPCRs. Outcomes of this research will facilitate the design of future development of selective and effective drugs.
