Using the β2-Adrenoceptor for Structure-Based Drug Design.

The article presents a science experiment for medicinal chemistry students which explores the structure and function of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). It presents discussion on molecular modeling process, GPCRs, and the objectives of the experiment. It discusses the modeling procedures that students conducted in which students used Sybyl software package for the molecular modeling manipulations. It also presents the processes and results of the laboratory experiment.
