Current developments in G-protein-coupled receptors.

Abstract:

:The rate at which receptors have been cloned has recently increased dramatically--existing families have been extended and new families created. The rapid cloning by homology of 'orphan receptors' has also stimulated the development of a new reverse pharmacology.

  • An integrin chicken and egg problem: which comes first, the extracellular matrix or the cytoskeleton?

    abstract::Integrins have the ability to organise macromolecular structures both inside and outside the cell. Analysis of integrin function in the developing embryos of worms and flies suggests that, although the extracellular matrix directs integrins to organise intracellular proteins, the cytoskeleton may have the first word. ...
