Journal Article
Liu, M., Mountford, S. J., Richardson, R. R., Groenen, M., Holliday, N. D., & Thompson, P. E. (2016). Optically pure, structural and fluorescent analogues of a dimeric Y4 receptor agonist derived by an olefin metathesis approach. Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 59(13), 6059-6069. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jmedchem.6b00310

The dimeric peptide 1 (BVD-74D, as a diastereomeric mixture) is a potent and selective Neuropeptide Y Y4 receptor agonist. It represents a valuable candidate in developing traceable ligands for pharmacological studies of Y4 receptors, and as a lead c...

Plasma membrane dynamics and tetrameric organisation of ABCG2 transporters in mammalian cells revealed by single particle imaging techniques. Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 1863(1), 19-29. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bbamcr.2015.10.002

ABCG2 is one of three human ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporters involved in the export from cells of a chemically and structurally diverse range of compounds. This multidrug efflux capability, together with a broad tissue distribution in the body...

Biased Gs versus Gq proteins and β-arrestin signaling in the NK1 receptor determined by interactions in the water hydrogen bond network (2015)
Journal Article
Valentin-Hansen, L., Frimurer, T. M., Mokrosinski, J., Holliday, N. D., & Schwartz, T. W. (2015). Biased Gs versus Gq proteins and β-arrestin signaling in the NK1 receptor determined by interactions in the water hydrogen bond network. Journal of Biological Chemistry, 290(40), 24495-24508. https://doi.org/10.1074/jbc.m115.641944

X-ray structures, molecular dynamics simulations, and mutational analysis have previously indicated that an extended water hydrogen bond network between trans-membranes I-III, VI, and VII constitutes an allosteric interface essential for stabilizing...

A G protein-coupled receptor dimer imaging assay reveals selectively modified pharmacology of neuropeptide Y Y1/Y5 receptor heterodimers (2015)
Journal Article
Kilpatrick, L. E., Humphrys, L. J., & Holliday, N. D. (in press). A G protein-coupled receptor dimer imaging assay reveals selectively modified pharmacology of neuropeptide Y Y1/Y5 receptor heterodimers. Molecular Pharmacology, 87(4), https://doi.org/10.1124/mol.114.095356

The ability of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) to form dimers, and particularly heterodimers, offers potential for targeted therapeutics with improved selectivity. However, studying dimer pharmacology is challenging, because of signaling cross-ta...

The non-integrin laminin receptor (LAMR1/RPSA) and galectin-3 (Gal-3) are multi-functional host molecules with roles in diverse pathological processes, particularly of infectious or oncogenic origins. Using bimolecular fluorescence complementation an... Read More about Deciphering the complex three-way interaction between the non-integrin laminin receptor, galectin-3 and Neisseria meningitidis.
