JNJ-55511118 Stabilizes a Desensitized-like Conformation of γ8-Containing AMPA Receptors through Long-Range Allosteric Modulation

Paola Carrillo Flores, Vladimir Berka, Vasanthi Jayaraman

This study shows JNJ-118 stabilizes a desensitized-like conformation of γ8-containing AMPA receptors through long-range allosteric modulation without disrupting the AMPAR-γ8 complex.

Bi-directional allosteric pathway in NMDA receptor activation and modulation

Paula A. Bender, Subhajit Chakraborty, Ryan J. Durham, Vladimir Berka, Elisa Carrillo, Vasanthi Jayaraman

This study identifies a bidirectional allosteric pathway between the extracellular and transmembrane domains of NMDA receptors, revealing how conformational changes in one domain influence the other.
