    Description: G-protein-coupled receptors have a major role in transmembrane signalling in most eukaryotes and many are important drug targets. Here we report the 2.7 A resolution crystal structure of a beta(1)-adrenergic receptor in complex with the high-affinity antagonist cyanopindolol. The modified turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) receptor was selected to be in its antagonist conformation and its thermostability improved by earlier limited mutagenesis. The ligand-binding pocket comprises 15 side chains from amino acid residues in 4 transmembrane alpha-helices and extracellular loop 2. This loop defines the entrance of the ligand-binding pocket and is stabilized by two disulphide bonds and a sodium ion. Binding of cyanopindolol to the beta(1)-adrenergic receptor and binding of carazolol to the beta(2)-adrenergic receptor involve similar interactions. A short well-defined helix in cytoplasmic loop 2, not observed in either rhodopsin or the beta(2)-adrenergic receptor, directly interacts by means of a tyrosine with the highly conserved DRY motif at the end of helix 3 that is essential for receptor activation.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2923055/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2923055/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Warne, Tony -- Serrano-Vega, Maria J -- Baker, Jillian G -- Moukhametzianov, Rouslan -- Edwards, Patricia C -- Henderson, Richard -- Leslie, Andrew G W -- Tate, Christopher G -- Schertler, Gebhard F X -- MC_U105178937/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- MC_U105184322/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- MC_U105184325/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- MC_U105197215/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- U.1051.04.020(78937)/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- England -- Nature. 2008 Jul 24;454(7203):486-91. doi: 10.1038/nature07101.

    Description: The nucleobase-cation-symport-1 (NCS1) transporters are essential components of salvage pathways for nucleobases and related metabolites. Here, we report the 2.85-angstrom resolution structure of the NCS1 benzyl-hydantoin transporter, Mhp1, from Microbacterium liquefaciens. Mhp1 contains 12 transmembrane helices, 10 of which are arranged in two inverted repeats of five helices. The structures of the outward-facing open and substrate-bound occluded conformations were solved, showing how the outward-facing cavity closes upon binding of substrate. Comparisons with the leucine transporter LeuT(Aa) and the galactose transporter vSGLT reveal that the outward- and inward-facing cavities are symmetrically arranged on opposite sides of the membrane. The reciprocal opening and closing of these cavities is synchronized by the inverted repeat helices 3 and 8, providing the structural basis of the alternating access model for membrane transport.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2885439/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2885439/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Weyand, Simone -- Shimamura, Tatsuro -- Yajima, Shunsuke -- Suzuki, Shun'ichi -- Mirza, Osman -- Krusong, Kuakarun -- Carpenter, Elisabeth P -- Rutherford, Nicholas G -- Hadden, Jonathan M -- O'Reilly, John -- Ma, Pikyee -- Saidijam, Massoud -- Patching, Simon G -- Hope, Ryan J -- Norbertczak, Halina T -- Roach, Peter C J -- Iwata, So -- Henderson, Peter J F -- Cameron, Alexander D -- 062164/Z/00/Z/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- 079209/Wellcome Trust/United Kingdom -- B17935/Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council/United Kingdom -- BB/C51725/Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council/United Kingdom -- BB/G020043/1/Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council/United Kingdom -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2008 Oct 31;322(5902):709-13. doi: 10.1126/science.1164440.
