Genome-wide association analysis, ...GPR61 is a class A orphan G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) that is predominantly expressed in the pituitary gland and appetite-regulating centers of the brain. Genome-wide association analysis, epigenetic analysis, and animal model data have suggested that GPR61 could be a potential therapeutic target for appetite and body weight modulation. Herein, we describe our medicinal chemistry efforts in discovering a class of potent, selective, and brain-penetrant GPR61 inverse agonists. The cryogenic electron microscopy structure of GPR61 bound to compound shows that this class of inverse agonists binds to an induced, intracellular, allosteric pocket and abolishes GPR61 constitutive activity by disrupting its interactions with G protein, representing a novel mode of action of GPCR inverse agonism. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
