De novo macrocyclic peptide discovery produces potent class A GPCR ligands with diverse pharmacology

Fernando Salgado-Polo, Marin Matic, Philip Rainsford, Felix Faas, Max Meyrath, Rajesh Regmi, METTE MARIE ROSENKILDE, Martyna Szpakowska, Andy Chevigné, Alexander S. Hauser, Joseph M. Rogers, Martin B Gustavsson

This study discovers potent, selective macrocyclic peptide ligands for CXCR4, a class A GPCR, demonstrating the feasibility of de novo peptide design for this receptor family.

Chemokine receptor activity is differentially regulated by membrane cholesterol

Fernando Salgado-Polo, Jose Fernández-González, Carolina Ferrera-Mena, Suresh Subedi, Sriram Tiruvadi Krishnan, Philip Rainsford, Rajesh Regmi, Rajan Lamichhane, Martin B Gustavsson

This study shows cholesterol modulates chemokine receptor activity differently, affecting some receptors but not others, and distinguishes cholesterol from oxysterols in their effects.
