Title: Decoding the structural basis of ligand recognition and biased signaling in the motilin receptor.

Abstract: The motilin receptor (MTLR) is a key target for treating gastrointestinal (GI) disorders like gastroparesis, yet developing effective agonists remains challenging due to drug tolerance and signaling ...The motilin receptor (MTLR) is a key target for treating gastrointestinal (GI) disorders like gastroparesis, yet developing effective agonists remains challenging due to drug tolerance and signaling bias. We present cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) structures of MTLR bound to azithromycin, a macrolide antibiotic, and DS-3801b, a non-macrolide agonist. Distinct ligand recognition mechanisms are revealed, with azithromycin binding deeply within the orthosteric pocket and DS-3801b adopting a special clamp-like conformation stabilized by a water molecule. We also highlight the critical role of extracellular loop 2 (ECL2) in ligand specificity and signaling pathway activation, affecting both G-protein and β-arrestin signaling. Additionally, the "DRS" motif and interactions around transmembranes 6/7 (TM6/7) are identified as key drivers of signaling selectivity. These findings offer insights into the structural dynamics of MTLR, laying the groundwork for the rational design of next-generation GI prokinetic drugs with enhanced efficacy and safety.

Jan 31, 2019. EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)

EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)

  • The allocation of 4 digits for EMDB accession codes will soon come to an end. Whilst these codes will remain in use, new EMDB accession codes will include an additional digit and will expand incrementally as the available range of codes is exhausted. The current 4-digit format prefixed with “EMD-” (i.e. EMD-XXXX) will advance to a 5-digit format (i.e. EMD-XXXXX), and so on. It is currently estimated that the 4-digit codes will be depleted around Spring 2019, at which point the 5-digit format will come into force.
  • The EM Navigator/Yorodumi systems omit the EMD- prefix.
