G-protein-coupled-receptors: from structural insights to functional mechanisms

G-protein-coupled-receptors: from structural insights to functional mechanisms - co-organized by the Biochemical Society and Monash University
12—14 September 2012

Monash University Prato Centre, Italy

A Biochemical Society Focused Meeting - co-organized by the Biochemical Society and Monash University.

Meeting background
A two-day meeting based at Prato in Italy, which will consider recent advances in G-protein coupled receptor structure and function, building on new concepts arising from biophysics, crystallography, pharmacology and cell biology

Topics

    Crystal structures of family A GPCRs
    Ligand binding and activation of family A GPCRs
    Ligand binding and activation of family B GPCRs
    Novel ligands for GPCRs and drug design
    RAMPs and other accessory proteins
    GPCR oligomerisation
    Trafficking of GPCRs
    GPCR signalling to ion channels
    Single molecule studies of GPCRs

Reviews by the speakers, based on their presentations at this major international meeting, will be published exclusively in Biochemical Society Transactions (Volume 41, part 1).
