Family B G protein-coupled receptors play important physiological roles and possess large extracellular domains (ECDs) that aid in binding the long polypeptide hormones that are their natural agonists.

This study focuses on eight new α/β analogues of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) that each contain fi ...[more]
