Application

1-Methylcyclopropanecarboxylic acid was used in the structure-activity studies of small carboxylic acids (SCAs). It was also used in the identification of selective orthosteric ligands for both free fatty acid receptor 2 (FFA2) and free fatty acid receptor 3 (FFA3).

Free fatty acid receptor 2 (FFA2; GPR43) is a G protein-coupled seven-transmembrane receptor for short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) that is implicated in inflammatory and metabolic disorders. The SCFA propionate has close to optimal ligand efficiency for FFA2 and can hence
Brian D Hudson et al.

When it is difficult to develop selective ligands within a family of related G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), chemically engineered receptors activated solely by synthetic ligands (RASSLs) are useful alternatives for probing receptor function. In the present work, we explored whether a
