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

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
