Abstract

Class B G-protein-coupled receptors are exciting drug targets, yet the structure of a complete receptor bound to a peptide agonist has remained elusive. Coin et al. present a model of the receptor CRF1R bound to its native ligand based on partial structures and 44 spatial constraints revealed by new crosslinking approaches.
