Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) mutations are implicated in many diseases. Most inactivating mutations cause receptor misfolding and prevent trafficking to the plasma membrane. Pharmacological chaperones can "rescue" cell surface expression of such mutants, presumably by stabilising correct folding of the nascent protein. OBJECTIVE: Here we examine the scope of intracellularly retained luteinising...
