GPCRs (G-protein coupled receptors) play a critical role in cellular signaling at the cell membrane. Although this class of transmembrane proteins has long been identified as a premier drug target, the availability of samples in quantities and qualities that are sufficient for biophysical and structural studies is often limited. Recent advances in structural and biophysical characterization for a select set of GPCRs have demonstrated that these proteins are indeed amenable to such studies. What are the tools that have enabled the preparation of GPCRs for such studies? This webinar provides insight into the latest advances in methods and techniques that Emerald Biostructures and other membrane protein experts have employed for the expression of this important target molecule class for structural and biophysical methods.
