Reversed binding of a small molecule ligand in homologous chemokine receptors - differential role of extracellular loop 2
Research output: Contribution to journal › Journal article › Research › peer-review
The majority of small molecule compounds targeting chemokine receptors share a similar pharmacophore with a centrally located aliphatic positive charge and flanking aromatic moieties. Here we describe a novel piperidine-based compound with structural similarity to previously described CCR8-specific agonists, but containing a unique phenyl-tetrazol moiety which, in addition to activity at CCR8 was also active at CCR1.
