Structural Insight into G Protein-Coupled Receptor Signaling Efficacy and Bias between Gs and ?-Arrestin.


ABSTRACT: G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) form the largest family of membrane proteins involved in signal transduction. Because of their ability to regulate a wide range of cellular responses and their dysregulation being associated with many diseases, GPCRs remain a key therapeutic target for several clinical indications. In recent years, it has been demonstrated that ligands for a given receptor can engage distinct pathways with different relative efficacies, a concept known as biased signaling or functional selectivity. However, the structural determinants of this phenomenon remain poorly understood. Using the ?2-adrenergic receptor as a model, we identified a linker residue (L1243.43) between the known PIF and NPxxY structural motifs, that plays a central role in the differential efficacy of biased ligands toward the Gs and ?-arrestin pathways. Given the high level of conservation of this linker residue, the study provides structural explanations for biased signaling that can be extrapolated to other GPCRs.
