Machine learning-aided search for ligands of P2Y and other P2Y receptors.

Purinergic signalling
The P2Y receptor, activated by uridine diphosphate (UDP), is a target for antagonists in inflammatory, neurodegenerative, and metabolic disorders, yet few potent and selective antagonists are known to date. This prompted us to use machine learning as...

Deep learning structural insights into heterotrimeric alternatively spliced P2X7 receptors.

Purinergic signalling
P2X7 receptors (P2X7Rs) are membrane-bound ATP-gated ion channels that are composed of three subunits. Different subunit structures may be expressed due to alternative splicing of the P2RX7 gene, altering the receptor's function when combined with th...
