Biochemical and pharmacological characterization of three opioid-nociceptin hybrid peptide ligands reveals substantially differing modes of their actions
2018
Peptides
These chimeric molecules consist of YGGF sequence, a crucial motif in the N-terminus of natural opioid peptides, and Ac-RYYRIK-NH2, which was isolated from a combinatorial peptide library as an antagonist ...
The designed chimeric peptide ligands presented in this study accommodate well into a group of multitarget opioid compounds that include opioid-non-opioid peptide dimer analogues, dual non-peptide dimers ...
Hybrid or bifunctional peptide or non-peptide ligands developed recently, bearing two pharmacophores, represent novel biochemical tools in investigating GPCRs and their interacting complexes. ...

A combined ligand-based and target-based drug design approach for G-protein coupled receptors: application to salvinorin A, a selective kappa opioid receptor agonist
2006
Journal of Computer-Aided Molecular Design
Utilizing a set of recently reported derivatives of salvinorin A, a structurally unique KOP receptor agonist, a pharmacophore model was developed that consisted of two hydrogen bond acceptor and three ...
Therefore, we set out to develop a powerful virtual screening model to identify novel molecular scaffolds as potential leads for the human KOP (hKOP) receptor employing a combined approach. ...

Discovery of new GPCR ligands to illuminate new biology
2017
Nature Chemical Biology
Although a plurality of drugs target G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), most have emerged from classical medicinal chemistry and pharmacology programs and resemble one another structurally and functionally ...
Structural determination of almost 40 GPCRs in the last decade has revealed them to be well suited for small-molecule recognition -a post hoc explanation for their preponderance among drug targets. ...

Customizing G Protein-Coupled Receptor Models for Structure-Based Virtual Screening
2009
Current pharmaceutical design
This review will focus on the construction, refinement, and validation of G Protein-coupled receptor models for the purpose of structure-based virtual screening. ...
Finally, an overview of several successful structure-based screening shows that receptor models, despite structural inaccuracies, can be efficiently used to find novel ligands. ...
