Abstract excerpt
The sphingosine-1-phosphate type 1 (S1P(1)) receptor is a new target in the treatment of auto-immune diseases as evidenced by the recent approval of FTY720 (Fingolimod). The ligand-binding pocket of the S1P(1) receptor has been generally characterised but detailed insight into ligand-specific differences is still lacking. The aim of the current study is to determine differences in ligand-induced S1P(1) receptor...
