Research Sheds Light on Tracing Water Channels in Cell Surface Receptors

Although advances made in medical science are many, we still do not know the multiple mysteries locked in our cells. Previous research has shown that G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest class of cell surface receptors in our cells, involved in signal transmission across the cell membrane. One of the biggest questions is how a signal recognized at the extracellular side of a GPCR induces a sequence of conformational changes in the protein and finally ...
