DiseaseGNAO_HUMAN Early infantile epileptic encephalopathy. The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. FunctionGNAO_HUMAN Guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins) are involved as modulators or transducers in various transmembrane signaling systems. The G(o) protein function is not clear. Stimulated by RGS14. Publication Abstract from PubMedThe small cyclic neuropeptide hormone oxytocin (OT) and its cognate receptor play a central role in the regulation of social behaviour and sexual reproduction. Here we report the single-particle cryo-electron microscopy structure of the active oxytocin receptor (OTR) in complex with its cognate ligand oxytocin. Our structure provides high-resolution insights into the OT binding mode, the OTR activation mechanism as well as the subtype specificity within the oxytocin/vasopressin receptor family. Structural basis for the activation and ligand recognition of the human oxytocin receptor.,Waltenspuhl Y, Ehrenmann J, Vacca S, Thom C, Medalia O, Pluckthun A Nat Commun. 2022 Jul 18;13(1):4153. doi: 10.1038/s41467-022-31325-0.
