Investigating the nature of the secondary binding site of the human β1-adrenoceptor using fluorescent ligands and confocal microscopy

CGP 12177 is a high affinity β-blocker that antagonises agonist responses mediated through the catecholamine binding site of the human β1-adrenoceptor (β1AR). However, CGP 12177 also exerts agonist activity through a secondary, low affinity “CGP 12177” binding site/conformational state of the β1AR....
