ERBB receptors are regulated by their own intrinsic properties as well as by external associated proteins. What is regulation, where does it occur on the receptor, and how do scientists study it?

His focus is the largest of three classes of cell surface receptors called G protein-coupled receptors, or GPCRs, which are involved in a wide range of functions from taste and smell to regulating ...

The DGIST research team is the first to identify "switch proteins," which directly inhibit the function of NMDA receptors, and explain how the related mechanism works. The key clue this research ...

Taste, pain, or response to stress—nearly all essential functions in the human body are regulated by molecular switches called G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Researchers at the University ...

Scientists at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) have glimpsed never-before-seen details of the human androgen receptor — the protein inside of cells that responds to male-typical hormones ...

We measured by quantitative immunoblotting protein levels of dopamine D1 and, for comparison, D2 receptors in brain of chronic users of methamphetamine, cocaine, and heroin. As compared with the ...

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are expressed on the surface of cells and regulate a range of important functions. Because they are involved in so many sensory and physiological processes, ...

Dublin, May 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "G-Protein Coupled Receptor (GPCR) Targeting: Technologies and Global Markets" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering. The global G ...

Odorant receptors, proteins that bind odor molecules on the surface of olfactory cells, make up half of the largest, most diverse family of receptors in our bodies. A deeper understanding of them ...
