The latest news
- June 2021.GPCRsignalOur new service GPCRsignal was recently published in NAR 2021, W1.
- April 2019.Our latest review on "Molecular switches in GPCRs".
- March 2019.The ERNEST project (COST CA18133) has started.ERNEST = European Research Network on Signal TransductionThe main scientific objective of the Action is to develop a common, comprehensive and holistic map of signal transduction that will advance development of pathway-specific chemical modulators. This unique and innovative goal will be realised by linking of a diverse group of researchers in the field through the networking activities funded by COST.
- May 2018.GPCRMOur service GPCRM is completely reshaped, much faster, and user friendly. Now, it contains 3 main routes: Quick path (default), Long path, and High similarity (the fastest) for homology modeling of GPCRs. Currently, the service contains over 90 template structures. The updated version was recently published in NAR 2018, W1.
