Identification of a Key Amino Acid of the Human 5-HT2B Serotonin Receptor Important for Sarpogrelate Binding

Based on radio-ligand binding and molecular modeling studies, sarpogrelate shows a moderate selectivity for 5-HT2B versus 5-HT2A receptors. To confirm the modeling data of sarpogrelate to 5-HT2B receptors predicting interaction of sarpogrelate towards Asp135 in helix 3 of 5-HT2B receptors, we constr...
