Scaling up Functional Analyses of the G Protein-Coupled Receptor Rhodopsin.

Abstract excerpt

Eukaryotic cells use G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) to convert external stimuli into internal signals to elicit cellular responses. However, how mutations in GPCR-coding genes affect GPCR activation and downstream signaling pathways remain poorly understood. Approaches such as deep mutational scanning show promise in investigations of GPCRs, but a high-throughput method to measure rhodopsin activation has...
