Structure of a D2 dopamine receptor-G-protein complex in a lipid membrane

Patrick Daniel Barth, Mahdi Hijazi

The D2 dopamine receptor (DRD2) is a therapeutic target for Parkinson's disease(1)and antipsychotic drugs(2). DRD2 is activated by the endogenous neurotransmitter dopamine and synthetic agonist drugs such as bromocriptine(3), leading to stimulation of G(i) ...

From Sequence to Dynamics to Function: Computational Design of Allostery and Ligand Selectivity in G-Protein Coupled Receptors

Mahdi Hijazi

The phenomenon of allostery, a general property in proteins that has been heralded as "the second secret of life" remains elusive to our understanding and even more challenging to incorporate into protein design. One example of allosteric proteins with gre ...

Deep learning approaches for conformational flexibility and switching properties in protein design

Patrick Daniel Barth, Lucas Sebastian Powell-Rudden, Mahdi Hijazi

Following the hugely successful application of deep learning methods to protein structure prediction, an increasing number of design methods seek to leverage generative models to design proteins with improved functionality over native proteins or novel str ...

Computational design of dynamic receptor—peptide signaling complexes applied to chemotaxis

Andreas Füglistaler, Ana Paola Rico Villarreal, Patrick Daniel Barth, Mahdi Hijazi, Aurélien Laurent Jean-Charles Oggier, Robert Everett Jefferson

Engineering protein biosensors that sensitively respond to specific biomolecules by triggering precise cellular responses is a major goal of diagnostics and synthetic cell biology. Previous biosensor designs have largely relied on binding structurally well ...
