Abstract

We present an online, interactive platform for comparative analysis of all available G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) structures while correlating to functional data. The comprehensive platform encompasses structure similarity, secondary structure, protein backbone packing and movement, residue-residue contact networks, amino acid properties and prospective design of experimental mutagenesis studies. This lets any researcher tap the potential of sophisticated structural analyses enabling a plethora of basic and applied receptor research studies.
