摘要
The transmembrane helical bundle of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) dimerize through helix-helix interactions in response to inflammatory stimulation. A strategy was developed to target the helical dimerization site of GPCRs by peptidomimetics with drug like properties. The concept was demonstrated by selecting a potent backbone cyclic helix mimetic from a library that derived from the dimerization region of chemokine (C-C motif) receptor 2 (CCR2) that is a key player in Multiple Sclerosis. We showed that CCR2 based backbone cyclic peptide having a stable helix structure inhibits specific CCR2-mediated chemotactic migration (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
