ABSTRACT
Drugs targeting the orthosteric, primary binding site of G protein-coupled receptors are most common therapeutics. Allosteric sites, elsewhere on receptors, less well-defined, and so exploited clinically. We report crystal structure prototypic β2-adrenergic receptor in complex with an orthosteric agonist compound-6FA, a positive allosteric modulator this receptor. It binds receptor's inner surface pocket created by intracellular loop 2 transmembrane segments 3 4, stabilizing α-helical conformation required to engage protein. Structural comparison explains selectivity compound for β2- over β1-adrenergic Diversity location, mechanism, ligands provides potential expand range drugs.
