Prestwick GPCR Drug Library:
A set of approved drugs known
to interact with a GPCR
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the most successful targets in pharma and approximately 40% of approved drugs interact with this family or receptors. The human genome alone contains approximately 800 GPCRs making it the largest family of membrane proteins.
Among those GPCRs, more than 140 orphan GPCRs are functionally unknown and their endogenous ligands remain unidentified. The Prestwick GPCR Drug Library is a collection of 265 approved drugs known to interact primarily with a GPCR. The use of this GPCR library may allow characterization of orphan GPCRs (deorphanization) and facilitate pharmacology research and drug innovation.
