Description:	Proteomics Interest Group Currently nearly half of the therapeutic pharmacopeia is targeted towards the plasma membrane heptahelical G proteincoupled receptors (GPCRs). Once considered to be relatively simplisitc ‘on-off’ systems, these highly flexible receptor proteins appear now to possess a potentially unprecedented level of functional nuance. Our increased appreciation of this specific receptor system is undoubtedly one of the most important fields of future translational research for the NIH.
