中文摘要：

G蛋白偶联受体（GPCR）是细胞膜上最大的一类受体,其通过构象变化激活下游G蛋白从而介导细胞响应多种来自内源和外界环境中的信号。自GPCR被发现以来,研究者就一直在努力解析GPCR的构象,x射线晶体衍射技术和GPCR蛋白质结晶技术的发展使得越来越多的GPCR单体在静息状态,以及与不同配体甚至G蛋白结合的晶体结构被成功解析。另一方面,FRET和电子显微技术的运用得到了GPCR二聚化和多聚化的多方面证据。本文将结合近年来该领域的进展,对GPCR寡聚体的结构和构象变化予以系统的综述,这些成果为研究GPCR的功能机制及其特异性的靶点药物开发提供了重要的基础。

英文摘要：

G protein-coupled receptors（GPCR） are the largest class of cell membrane receptors. As a sensor of cells, GPCR mediated a variety of signals from endogenous and external environment. GPCR activated downstream G proteins for signal transduction through conformational changes. Since GPCR was found, researchers have been trying to resolve GPCR structure conformation,multifaceted evidence of GPCR dimerization and oligomerization was obtained using tr FRET and electron microscopy technique. And x-ray crystal diffraction and GPCR protein crystallization technology made more GPCR crystal structure was successfully resolved to obtain the high-precision three-dimensional structure. As the developing of technology, GPCR crystal structure with different ligands or G protein binding further demonstrates different state of GPCR conformations. These results had laid an important foundation for the study of GPCR function mechanisms and drug development with specific targets. This article reviewed GPCR structures in recent years.
