Structure of the active Gi-coupled human lysophosphatidic acid receptor 1 complexed with a potent agonist
LPA1 is one of the GPCRs that are drug targets for various diseases. Here the authors report a cryo-EM structure of the active human LPA1-Gi complex bound to an LPA analog with more potent activity against LPA1 and clarified the ligand recognition mechanism.
