Structural basis of human ghrelin receptor signaling by ghrelin and the synthetic agonist ibutamoren
Ghrelin is a central orexigenic peptide hormone in human energy homeostasis that is also known as ‘hunger hormone’ and signals through its GPCR, GHSR. Here, the authors present the cryo-EM structures of the human GHSR-Gi signaling complex with bound ghrelin and the synthetic non-peptide agonist ibut...

Sumario: | Ghrelin is a central orexigenic peptide hormone in human energy homeostasis that is also known as ‘hunger hormone’ and signals through its GPCR, GHSR. Here, the authors present the cryo-EM structures of the human GHSR-Gi signaling complex with bound ghrelin and the synthetic non-peptide agonist ibutamoren that are of interest for drug design. |
