Abstract excerpt
In several G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), the Asp-Arg-Tyr (DRY) motif at the bottom of third transmembrane domain and the amino acid at position 6.34 in the sixth transmembrane domain have been shown to play important roles in signal transduction. In this study, we propose that in the cannabinoid-2 (CB2) receptor, R3.50 in the DRY motif may be crucial for interacting with G proteins, and D3.49 and A6.34 may...
