Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the virus responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic. Patients may present as asymptomatic or demonstrate mild to severe and life-threatening symptoms. Although COVID-19 has a respiratory foc...

Probing the binding of interleukin-23 to individual receptor components and the IL-23 heteromeric receptor complex in living cells using NanoBRET (2021)
Journal Article
Lay, C. S., Bridges, A., Goulding, J., Briddon, S. J., Soloviev, Z., Craggs, P. D., & Hill, S. J. (2022). Probing the binding of interleukin-23 to individual receptor components and the IL-23 heteromeric receptor complex in living cells using NanoBRET. Cell Chemical Biology, 29(1), 19-29.e6. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chembiol.2021.05.002

Interleukin-23 (IL-23) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine involved in the host defence against pathogens, but also implicated in the development of several autoimmune disorders. The IL- 23 receptor has become a key target for drug discovery but the exact...

Investigation of Receptor Heteromers Using NanoBRET Ligand Binding (2021)
Journal Article
Johnstone, E. K. M., See, H. B., Abhayawardana, R. S., Song, A., Rosengren, K. J., Hill, S. J., & Pfleger, K. D. G. (2021). Investigation of Receptor Heteromers Using NanoBRET Ligand Binding. International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 22(3), Article 1082. https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms22031082

Receptor heteromerization is the formation of a complex involving at least two different receptors with pharmacology that is distinct from that exhibited by its constituent receptor units. Detection of these complexes and monitoring their pharmacolog... Read More about Investigation of Receptor Heteromers Using NanoBRET Ligand Binding.

Journal Article
Mai, Q. N., Shenoy, P., Quach, T., Retamal, J. S., Gondin, A. B., Yeatman, H. R., …Veldhuis, N. A. (2021). A lipid-anchored neurokinin 1 receptor antagonist prolongs pain relief by a three-pronged mechanism of action targeting the receptor at the plasma membrane and in endosomes. Journal of Biological Chemistry, 296, Article 100345. https://doi.org/10.1016/J.JBC.2021.100345

G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are traditionally known for signaling at the plasma membrane, but they can also signal from endosomes after internalization to control important pathophysiological processes. In spinal neurons, sustained endosomal...
