Abstract excerpt
In the past decade, engineered G-protein-coupled receptors activated solely by synthetic ligands (RASSLs) have been implemented as a new means to study neurotransmission, which is controlled by G-protein-coupled receptors in vitro and in vivo. In this study, we report an engineered dopamine receptor D(2L) F390(6.52)W, which is the first identified RASSL for the dopamine receptor family. The mutant receptor is...
