  • Method for selecting allosteric regulators of class III G protein-coupled receptors
    Patent number: 7611848
    Abstract: A method for identifying and selecting a compound acting as an allosteric regulator of a GPCR-III is described. A method comparing the activity level of a recombinant GPCR-III (GPCR-III-?), essentially depleted of the extracellular domain of the corresponding native GPCR-III, in the presence of a given compound, with the activity level of the same GPCR-III-? is described. A method of identifying positive or negative allosteric regulators of GPCRs-III is described.

  • Method For Selecting Allosteric Regulators Of Class III G Protein-Coupled Receptors
    Publication number: 20080058430
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for identifying and selecting a compound acting as an allosteric regulator of a GPCR-III. According to said method, the activity level of a recombinant GPCR-III (GPCR-III-?), essentially depleted of the extracellular domain of the corresponding native GPCR-III in the presence of a given compound, is compared to the activity level of the same GPCR-III? in the absence of said compound, enabling positive or negative allosteric regulators of GPCRs-III to be identified and selected. The invention also relates to the application of one such method for identifying and selecting compounds of interest in fields of activity such as pharmacy, the agro-food industry, the environment, ecology and basic research.
