Our research illuminates the molecular mechanisms underlying GPCR signaling diversity and its regulation. We have developed methodologies for high-throughput, user-friendly platforms for GPCR signaling, including a TGFα shedding assay and NanoBiT signal sensors. By combining these assays with a panel of GPCR-effector-knockout HEK293 cell lines, we can isolate complex signal crosstalk, enabling unprecedented analytical precision. In this seminar, I will present our suite of GPCR signal analysis methods and their application to understanding GPCR–G-protein-coupling selectivity. I will demonstrate the development of a G12-selective DREADD, which provides valuable insights into G12 signaling pharmacology in vivo. Additionally, I will highlight our recent investigations into membrane nanodomains and their critical roles in GPCR signaling regulation, as revealed through single-molecule observations in living cells. These findings have significant implications for fundamental medical research and open promising new avenues for drug discovery.
