Abstract

Zhang et al. show that the non-peptide GLP-1R agonist PF 06882961, but not CHU-128, was able to closely mimic the in vitro pharmacological fingerprint of GLP-1. These pharmacological activities could be rationalized from high-resolution structures that provide a novel template for the design of new agonists targeting the GLP-1R.
