The study also clarifies the functional role of the receptor's conserved sodium-binding pocket, showing that sodium egress strongly promotes activation-related conformational states, including a ...
Computational analysis using rigidity-theory indicates that activation of the human adenosine A 2A receptor (shown here) is regulated by long-range allosteric communication pathways (highlighted in ...
A multinational research team led by researchers at Institute of Science Tokyo, RIKEN, and the University of Toronto has revealed how a tryptophan-rich allosteric communication network regulates ...
