Cryo-EM structure of the bicarbonate receptor GPR30
G-protein-coupled receptor 30 (GPR30) is a bicarbonate receptor that plays a vital role in cellular responses to extracellular pH and ion homeostasis. Despite its significance, the mechanisms by which GPR30 interacts with bicarbonate ions remain elusive. There is no consensus on a drug that targets GPR30, and difficulties in pharmacological analyses have limited biological and drug discovery…
