Abstract excerpt
Focusing on the similarity and divergence of GPCR subtypes and their ligand interactions, we generated dopamine D2, D3, and D4 receptor models based on the rhodopsin crystal structure and refined these with an extensive MM/MD protocol. After validation by diagnostic experimental data, subtype-specific relative positions of TM1, 2, 6, and 7 and bending angles of TM7 were found. To sample the conformational space...
