Project 1:Restoration of Agonist Binding with an Allosteric Modulator in Mutated CB1-Performed site-directed mutagenesis on select residues of CB1 to determine their contribution to receptor function-Treated receptors which demonstrated a loss in CB1 agonist binding with an allosteric modulator, observed restored binding of CB1 agonist upon allosteric modulator treatment in otherwise dysfunctional receptorsProject 2:Testing Derivatives of Known CB1 Allosteric Modulators-Prepared mammalian cell membranes, performed radioligand binding assays to assess ability of allosteric modulators to affect orthosteric agonist and inverse agonist binding-Evaluated G-protein coupling of various derivatives of CB¬1 allosteric modulators using GTPγS assaysProject 3:Covariance and Coevolution Studies of CB1-Analyzed covariance analysis data to select covarying residues of interest in CB1, constructed single and double mutant CB1 receptors based on covariance data-Assessed effects of single and double mutations on CB1 agonist binding via radioligand binding assays Show less
