The peptide agonist-binding site of the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor based on site-directed mutagenesis and knowledge-based modelling

Mutagenesis and molecular pharmacological analysis of the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor highlighted several residues involved in peptide agonist recognition. Coupled with a new molecular model of the full-length agonist-docked receptor, the binding site and a pharmacophore for agonist pep...

Description
Summary:Mutagenesis and molecular pharmacological analysis of the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor highlighted several residues involved in peptide agonist recognition. Coupled with a new molecular model of the full-length agonist-docked receptor, the binding site and a pharmacophore for agonist peptides are described.
