Abstract excerpt
Structures of over 30 different G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) have advanced our understanding of cell signaling and have provided a foundation for structure-guided drug design. This exciting progress has required the development of three complementary methods to facilitate GPCR crystallization, one of which is the thermostabilization of receptors by systematic mutagenesis. However, the reason why a...
