Abstract
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are therapeutically important family of membrane proteins. Despite growing number of experimental structures available for GPCRs, homology modeling remains a relevant method for studying these receptors and for discovering new ligands for them. Here we describe the state-of-the-art methods for modeling GPCRs, starting from template selection, through fine-tuning sequence alignment to model refinement.
