Here we describe computational design methods and a high throughput "receptor diversion" microscopy-based screen for generating GPCR binding miniproteins with high affinity, potency and selectivity, and the use of these methods to generate MRGPRX1 agonists and CXCR4, GLP1R, GIPR, GCGR and CGRPR antagonists. Cryo-electron microscopy data reveals atomic-level agreement between designed and experimentally determined structures for CGRPR-bound antagonists and MRGPRX1-bound agonists, confirming precise conformational control of receptor function. Our design and screening approach opens new frontiers in GPCR drug discovery and development. | |||||||||||||||
