2- Will you feel a sense of pride and accomplishment
when you get the Nobel Prize in chemistry? Will
you feel different when you are as an object of
study to research biochemical signals like
G-protein coupled receptors? Can you imagine
that?
3- GPCRs belong to a very large family of proteins,
which mainly involves in the signal transduction,
whose topological conformation is the receptors
of seven transmembrane. When the ligands outside
membrane are connected with receptors, the
interior of the receptors will mutually bind with
each other and then activate the G-protein. While
as for G-protein, there are two approaches to
transmit extracellular information. The first
approach is to open the transmembrane ion
channels so that the ions can enter from outside.
The second is to activate a second messenger, sch
as cAMp and DAG. In fact, Calcium ions are
guenerally considered as the third messengers.
4- Generally speaking, GPCRs are structurally
flexible and dynamic because they can apply
different structures, namely the conformation, to
diverse factors. It is believed that a
conformational equilibrium exists in GPCRs
molecule between active and inactive biophysical
states so it is necessary to pay more attention
to the binding of ligands to GPCRs for they might
change the equilibrium toward the active
receptors. In terms of the current social
reality, molecular drug targets have become
extensively important in the application of
modern new drugs, and drug targets might be more
effective with the further research of GPCRs.
5- Moreover, an increasing number of laboratories
focus on the structures and mechanisms of GPCRs.
Why? It is because of the fact that analyzing the
structures of GPCRs is critical to help
understand the mechanisms. And its significant
in designing more effective drugs. Its no
exaggeration to say that it will bring a new
vitality for pharmaceutical industry.
6- Creative Biolabs has been known for its
breakthrough GPCRs production technology. It has
completed a professional platform to offer an
integrated service in producing GPCRs.
Additionally, many scientists from Creative
Biolabs can analyze the utility of customized
GPCRs as well. Given the fact that many drugs are
always directed at a certain target and GPCRs are
dynamic and flexible, thus the research of GPCRs
can be significant in the understand of drug
mechanisms and promote the advance of modern new
drugs to a large degree.
