Understanding the Allosteric Modulation of PTH1R by a Negative Allosteric Modulator.

ABSTRACT: The parathyroid hormone type 1 receptor (PTH1R) acts as a canonical class B G protein-coupled receptor, regulating crucial functions including calcium homeostasis and bone formation. The identification and development of PTH1R non-peptide allosteric modulators have obtained widespread attention. It has been found that a negative allosteric modulator (NAM) could inhibit the activation of PTH1R, but the implied mechanism remains unclear. Herein, extensive molecular dynamics simulations together with multiple analytical approaches are utilized to unravel the mechanism of PTH1R allosteric inhibition. The results suggest that the binding of NAM destabilizes the structure of the PTH1R-PTH-spep/qpep (the C terminus of Gs/Gq proteins) complexes. Moreover, the presence of NAM weakens the binding of
