Abstract
The binding of glucagon like peptide-1 (GLP-1] to its receptor, the GLP-1 receptor (GLP-IR), results in insulin secretion from pancreatic beta-cells. This makes the receptor an important drug target for type 2 diabetes. The GLP-IR is a family B G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) and functions at the...
