abstract = {Most human G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are
activated by small molecules binding to their
7-transmembrane (7-TM) helix bundle. They belong to basally
diverging branches: the 25 bitter taste 2 receptors and most
members of the very large rhodopsin-like/class A GPCRs
subfamily. Some members of the class A branch have been
suggested to feature not only an orthosteric agonist-binding
site but also a more extracellular or “vestibular” site,
involved in the binding process. Here we use a hybrid
molecular mechanics/coarse-grained (MM/CG) molecular
dynamics approach on a widely studied bitter taste receptor
(TAS2R46) receptor in complex with its agonist strychnine.
Three ∼1 μs molecular simulation trajectories find two
sites hosting the agonist, which together elucidate
experimental data measured previously and in this work. This
mechanism shares similarities with the one suggested for the
evolutionarily distant class A GPCRs. It might be
instrumental for the remarkably broad but specific spectrum
of agonists of these chemosensory receptors.},
