Noncanonical roles of chemokine regions in CCR9 activation revealed by structural modeling and mutational mapping
18 Aug 2025
Abstract excerpt
The G protein-coupled chemokine receptor CCR9 plays a major role in inflammatory bowel disease and is implicated in cancer. Despite its therapeutic relevance, the mechanism by which CCR9 is activated by its endogenous chemokine CCL25 remains poorly understood. Here, we combine structural modeling with multimodal pharmacological analysis of CCR9 mutants to map the CCR9-CCL25 interface and delineate key...
