Abstract excerpt
The GnRH receptor is an unusual member of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily with several unique features. One of these is a variant of the conserved DRY motif that is located at the junction of the third transmembrane domain and the second intracellular (2i) loop of most GPCRs. In the GnRH receptor, the Tyr residue of the conserved triplet is replaced by Ser, giving a DRS sequence. The aspartate...
