Popis: Ligand-induced biased signaling is thought to result in part from ligand-specific receptor conformations that cause the engagement of distinct effectors. Here the authors trace and evaluate the impact of mutations of the β2–adrenergic receptor on multiple signaling outputs to provide structural-level insight into the determinants of GPCR functional selectivity.
