It was shown that 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 2 (5-HT2) binds to selective inverse (ritanserin) and highly promiscuous (ergotamine) agonists but the interaction with ergotamine is broad.121 This feature allows the development of pan serotonin receptor modulators to treat different diseases.124,125,126,127 For instance, zolmitriptan as an anti-migraine drug is also used for hyperesthesia via binding to off-target site,120 and lorcaserin (Belviq) is used to treat obesity while its therapeutic potential for depression, schizophrenia, and drug addiction is being investigated.128,129 However, off-target activity, hallucinations,130 and cardiac valvulopathy related to 5-HT2A and 5-HT2B modulation129 should be carefully monitored. The paradigm of one drug vs. multiple targets has outpaced the time and cost associated with the conventional therapy.120 Polypharmacology thus emerges to study acceptable degree of specificity toward multiple targets, interconnected signaling pathways that result in clinical benefit or cross-reactivity that may cause adverse events.121,122 T2DM, obesity, cancer, and Alzheimers disease are major indications for GPCR modulators.4 These polygenic diseases are not completely treatable by a single agent, while desirable efficacies may be achieved for certain respiratory conditions, central nervous system (CNS) disorders, and cardiovascular diseases through modulators directed against 2AR, DRD2, and AGTR1,123 respectively. Once activated, G can go on to interact with downstream effectors. It is known that an agonist binds and stabilizes the conformation of the VFT, leading to compaction of the inter-subunit dimer interface and proximity of the CRD (Fig. Although allosteric modulators of class C have attracted significant development efforts involving 8 clinical trial stage compounds [2 positive (PAM) and 6 negative (NAM) allosteric modulators], the only success is cinacalcet, a small molecule PAM of CaSR approved in 2004 for hyperparathyroidism and calcimimetics.57.

Crystallizing membrane proteins for structure-function studies using lipidic mesophases. Chem. GPCRs have been implicated in a large number of diseases, such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), obesity, depression, cancer, Alzheimers disease, and many others.2 Activated by external signals through coupling to different G proteins or arrestins, GPCRs elicit cyclic adenosine 3,5-monophosphate (cAMP) response, calcium mobilization, or phosphorylation of extracellular regulated protein kinases 1/2 (pERK1/2).3 The seven-transmembrane protein property endows them easy to access, while the diversified downstream signaling pathways make them attractive for drug development.4 The human GPCR family is divided into classes A (rhodopsin), B (secretin and adhesion), C (glutamate), and F (Frizzled) subfamilies according to their amino acid sequences (Fig. 8d, e).117,118 In contrast to SMO, the ligand recognition and receptor activation mechanisms of FZD remains elusive due to the absence of the full-length FZD structures. Dhar, T. G. et al. Sci. Namkung, Y. et al. Cell-based selection expands the utility of DNA-encoded small-molecule library technology to cell surface drug targets: identification of novel antagonists of the NK3 tachykinin receptor. Comput Sci. conducted a VS of a tailored virtual library bearing 2,3-dichlorophenylpiperazine for DRD2 and found that 18 compounds occupy both orthosteric and allosteric sites, and 4 of them stimulated -arrestin recruitment (EC50=320nM, Emax=16%) without detectable G protein signaling.214, In the past 5 years, an increasing number of receptorallosteric modulator complex structures revealed diversified positions of allosteric sites and a variety of binding modes, thereby deepening our understanding of allosteric modulation in terms of underlying mechanisms and structural basis.

CGRP is a 37-amino acid neuropeptide and its receptor is implicated in migraine.83 The benzodiazapinone compound 7 was identified as a hit compound with modest CGRP receptor binding affinity (Ki=4.8M, Fig. Article Anal. Peptides 125, 170225 (2020). 11eg). Pertussis toxin is an ADP-ribosylase enzyme that adds an ADP-ribose moiety to a particular cysteine residue in G i and G o proteins, preventing their coupling to and activation by GPCRs, thus turning off G i and G o cell signaling pathways. Nature 533, 274277 (2016). The full-length structures of mGlu5 in apo and agonist-bound states,51 as well as several recently reported full-length structures of GABABRs,52,53,55 have significantly extended our understanding of the activation mechanism of the class C receptors.

Substitution of the aniline group with a 2-amino-5-cyano pyridine (compound 3) maintained OX2R affinity and reduced OX1R activity, but physicochemical properties were improved compared to compound 2.81 Further SAR studies focused on the modification of all three aromatic substitutions in compound 3.82 Changing the di-OMe-phenyl substituent to a pyrimidine group resulted in a significant loss of binding affinity, as shown with compound 4, but an improved overall profile due to reduced lipophilicity and enhanced solubility. Nature 557, 228232 (2018). 5f). G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are a critical target in modern drug development across a wide range of indications. Approximately 500 novel drug candidates are in clinical trials. To make things worse, NAMs may weaken the binding of an endogenous ligand thus behaving like a competitor, such as NDT9513727 in C5AR1170 (PDB code: 5O9H).171. 2018 Apr;39(4):367-386. doi: 10.1016/j.tips.2018.01.001.

Qin, S. et al. The first crystal structure of inactive state rhodopsin purified from bovine eyes was solved in 2000.90 Although tremendous efforts have been made, elucidation of GPCR structures remains challenging due to several bottlenecks, including low receptor expression level, difficulties in extraction, highly flexible conformation, lack of crystal contacts, etc. 9): UP12, UP34, LOW34, LOW345, and LOW67. 175, 317 (2018). a Superposition of SMO crystal structures bound to agonists (yellow sticks) and antagonists (green sticks). Korczynska, M. et al. Five different positions were identified by crystal structures (Fig. Meanwhile, non-conserved allosteric sites would be a better choice evidenced by discovery of many subtype selective allosteric modulators of acetylcholine102,164 and cannabinoid receptors165,166; (iii) introducing signal bias. The results illustrate that allosteric behavior is not equal to totally separated binding positions, because partially overlapped sites with different key interactions are also allowed. Atypical antipsychotics are mainly targeting both dopamine and serotonin receptors, usually as antagonist for DRD2 and antagonist or inverse agonist for 5-HT2A.131 Exemplified by clozapine120 and aripiprazole,132 haloperidol, amoxapine, and asenapine4 display a diverse spectrum of receptor interaction.

Orexin-1 and orexin-2 receptors (also known as hypocretin receptors, OX1R and OX2R) are class A GPCRs for which two endogenous peptide ligands were identified, orexin A and orexin B (also known as hypocretin 1 and hypocretin 2). 290, 2912729139 (2015). Rev. Ranganathan, A. et al. Recent scientific and technological advancements in GPCR biology have provided an enormous amount of information that will benefit our current and future efforts in rational drug design. Each incubation consumed about 2g membrane-embedded GPCR protein with a pool of 480 compounds. These different techniques vary in the ligand screening throughput and binding characteristics (Table 7). Here we summarize about 20 experimental screening technologies adapted to GPCR ligand discovery (Table 7) and highlight the most recent development of binding-based approaches. Although they act as efficient chemical messengers to modulate cellular functions, these peptides suffer from unfavorable pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics properties, such as very short plasma half-lives and low plasma protein binding.

It is composed of a ligand-binding VFT linked by the CRD to the TMD except for the metabotropic GABAB receptor (GABABR), which lacks CRD (Fig. Adv. As one of the most successful therapeutic target families, G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) have experienced a transformation from random ligand screening to knowledge-driven drug design. Mechanistic investigations in human hepatic cell lines revealed that TAC stimulated PINK1/Parkin expression and inhibited the expression of insulin signaling related molecules (e.g., IRS2 . Due to the high sensitivity and high selectivity of modern MS for both protein and small molecule analysis, versatile MS-based technologies have been developed in the past two decades for screening ligands of a given protein target or characterization of ligand-binding properties (Table 7). The OH was finally replaced with an -NH2 group, which led to the clinical compound rimegepant.89 The latter was further developed for better safety and efficacy profiles and obtained regulatory approval by the FDA in 2020.
