Selective polypeptide ligand binding to the extracellular surface of the transmembrane domains of the class B GPCRs GLP-1R and GCGR

Summary: Crystal and cryo-EM structures of the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) and glucagon receptor (GCGR) bound with their peptide ligands have been obtained with full-length constructs, indicating that the extracellular domain (ECD) is indispensable for specific ligand binding. This art...
