    Empowering AlphaFold2 for protein conformation selective drug discovery with AlphaFold2-RAVE

    Xinyu Gu, Akashnathan Aranganathan, Pratyush Tiwary
    AlphaFold2's inability to generate non-native conformations for docking is addressed by AI-molecular dynamics method AlphaFold2-RAVE, which produces Boltzmann-ranked conformations, enabling the retrospective discovery of type II kinase inhibitors.

    Distinct inactive conformations of the dopamine D2 and D3 receptors correspond to different extents of inverse agonism

    J Robert Lane, Ara M Abramyan ... Lei Shi
    The occupation of a sub-pocket near the Na+-binding site in D2R by the Na+-insensitive antagonists is the structural basis for their greater inverse agonism than that of the Na+-sensitive ligands.

    Fibroblast mechanotransduction network predicts targets for mechano-adaptive infarct therapies

    Jesse D Rogers, William J Richardson
    Mechanotransduction signaling analysis suggests that mechanical tension can sensitize, desensitize, and reverse cell responses to biochemical agonists, as well as provide mechano-adaptive targets for regionally specific drug responses.

    Revealing druggable cryptic pockets in the Nsp1 of SARS-CoV-2 and other β-coronaviruses by simulations and crystallography

    Alberto Borsatto, Obaeda Akkad ... Francesco Luigi Gervasio
    A combination of simulations and experiments was used to discover druggable cryptic pockets in non-structural protein 1, a promising but difficult target for coronaviruses, indicating a viable drug discovery approach for otherwise undruggable targets.
