From empirical screening to lipid trolling: the evolution of extrahelical allosteric modulators of A1 and A3 adenosine receptors

An early GPCR positive allosteric modulator (PAM) was the 2-amino-3-benzoylthiophene derivative PD81,723, which enhances G(i)-coupled A(1) adenosine receptor (AR) agonist effects. Cryo-EM studies located its extrahelical binding site on TMs 5 and 6, and extensive empirical SAR is consistent with the
