🤔 Can we improve our pain therapies by targeting different receptors? 💊 Opioids reduce pain by targeting opioid receptors, a diverse class of #GPCRs which are each associated with distinct adverse side effects. While the Mu opioid receptor (µOR) remains the primary target for traditional opioids, the delta opioid receptor (δOR) presents a promising avenue for developing effective pain therapies with fewer adverse effects and a lower potential for abuse. 🔬 In “Cryo-EM structure of small-molecule agonist bound delta opioid receptor-Gi complex enables discovery of biased compound”, Cheng et al. use cryo-EM to solve the first structure of δOR stimulated by a subtype-selective agonist, in complex with the Gi heterotrimer protein. This structural knowledge provides a framework to develop agonists with increased specificity for δOR and decreased side effects such as drug dependence. 📓 See the results here: https://lnkd.in/g_6Rc8KW 👩🔬 Wondering how you can use #cryoEM to characterize new #drugtargets?

🧪 #AAV is a common gene therapy vehicle. Phase appropriate characterization with cryo-TEM can be used for quality control of your formulations during any stage in the pipeline. 💡Quantitative analysis can reveal the ratio of full, partial, and empty capsids, which can be used to support the analysis of viral vector purity. 🔬 #CryoTEM imaging can also provide insights into the presence of #aggregation, #capsid integrity, and high resolution data collection can provide detailed 2D classifications and 3D structures. 📑 See an example: https://lnkd.in/gEAnxrxX
