The mechanism of recessive symptoms of anti-schizophrenia and the safety of opioids have always been scientific issues that need to be resolved urgently
.
The orphan receptor GPR139 is a highly expressed G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) in the brain, which is highly correlated with the expression of μ opioid receptors and dopamine receptors (D2R), and participates in the body Basic life activities such as regulation and exercise metabolism
.
Studies have shown that GPR139 is closely related to the occurrence and development of many central nervous system diseases such as schizophrenia, Parkinson's disease, and alcohol addiction
.
At present, the small molecule TAK-041, an agonist for GPR139, has entered clinical phase I trials for the treatment of negative symptoms of schizophrenia
.
At the same time, studies have also found that GPR139 has a negative regulatory effect on mu opioid receptor signals, and GPR139 antagonists are expected to improve the safety of opioids
.
Therefore, the study of ligand regulation and signal transduction molecular mechanism of GPR139 has very important guiding significance for future basic and translational research
.
On December 17, 2021, Liu Zhijie/Hua Tian's team from the iHuman Institute of ShanghaiTech University and a collaborator from the University of Copenhagen, Denmark published an online study titled Molecular insights into ligand recognition and G protein coupling of the neuromodulatory orphan receptor GPR139 on Cell Research The paper reveals the three-dimensional structure of GPR139 with small molecule agonists and different downstream signal transduction proteins Gq and Gi complexes, reveals the regulation mechanism of agonists, and provides a precise template for structure-based targeted drug design and optimization
.
At the same time, the study also reported the structure of the GPR139-Gq complex that binds to GDP- and GTP-, respectively, expounding for the first time the regulatory mechanism of G protein on GPCR in the state of GTP and GDP binding
.
As an orphan receptor, GPR139's endogenous ligand and receptor activation mechanism are still unclear
.
With the technical support of the Shanghai University of Science and Technology Bioelectron Microscopy Platform, the research team analyzed the structure of the GPR139-Gq and GPR130-Gi complex bound by the agonist JNJ-63533054, and revealed for the first time the binding pocket of the small agonist JNJ-63533054 and the uniqueness of GPR139 The activation mechanism of GPR139 and the interaction mode of GPR139 with different G proteins
.
The research team further combined molecular docking and pharmacological studies to explore the binding mode of clinical candidate drug molecule TAK-041 and the regulation mechanism of different GPR139 signaling pathways, providing a scientific basis for the development of innovative drugs for GPR139
.
The structure of the GPCR-G protein complex that has been analyzed so far, the G protein is in a nuclearide free state
.
How the nucleotide bound G protein regulates GPCR under physiological conditions is still unknown
.
Due to the highly dynamic nature of this regulatory process, it is difficult to obtain stable composite samples for structural biology research
.
The researchers successfully captured the GDP- and GTP-bound GPR139-Gq complex by adding GDP or GTP before freezing samples
.
Through structural analysis and comparison, it revealed the molecular mechanism of GPCR regulation by G protein closer to the physiological state, and further deepened the understanding of GPCR-mediated cell signal transduction
.
Caption: The signal transduction mode of GPR139 and the three-dimensional fine structure of different downstream G protein complexes.
