WHY TARGET GPCRs WITH ANTIBODIES

The G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) still remain a highly targeted class for small
molecule drug production. However, the antibodies are becoming a preferred alternative because
of the GPCRs being intractable to the small molecule drug discovery. Equally, increasing
antibodies to GPCRs has proved a hard task because of the difficulties in getting suitable antigen
given that GPCRs are often unstable and have low levels of cell expressions (Hutchings, Koglin
& Marshall, 2010). The main interes...
