Ligand Activity Visualisation ChartsThese are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts. ✖ |

Target | Comment |
GPR4 | An initial report suggesting activation by lysophosphatidylcholine and sphingosylphosphorylcholine [9] has been retracted [3]. GPR4, GPR65, GPR68 and GPR132 are now thought to function as proton-sensing receptors detecting acidic pH [1,5]. Gene disruption is associated with increased perinatal mortality and impaired vascular proliferation [8]. Negative allosteric modulators of GPR4 have been reported [6]. |
GPR68 | GPR68 was previously identified as a receptor for sphingosylphosphorylcholine (SPC) [7], but the original publication has been retracted [10]. GPR4, GPR65, GPR68 and GPR132 are now thought to function as proton-sensing receptors detecting acidic pH [1,5]. A family of 3,5-disubstituted isoxazoles were identified as agonists of GPR68 [4]. |
