This is the third and final blog in this series ‘Agonist and antagonist differences emerge for the Beta2 Adrenergic GPCR‘ by Andy Vinter. Part 3 reports on the tentative finding that agonists stabilize the full complex and fight to keep the Arg131/Glu392 closed whilst antagonists destabilize the complex and encourage the ion pair to open and release the G-protein.
Torch, Cresset’s powerful molecular design tool for medicinal and synthetic chemists, has been used to visualize and give new insight to the deep changes in electrostatic and hydrophobic properties introduced by the substitution patterns recommended by the Topliss tree. See the electrostatics of the Topliss tree.
With an excellent success rate in contract research, our prime focus is early phase discovery centering on small molecule design for biological targets. See the specific services offered and why you should choose Cresset as your scientific partner.
