G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) structures determined by X-ray crystallography or cryo-electron microscopy include 28 receptors for which complexes with agonists and antagonists can be compared. In all these comparisons, an interatomic distance representing the size of the orthosteric ligand binding groove differs by less than 2.9 Å. In this report, 19F-NMR observations of the NK1R-bound drug molecule aprepitant show that the orthosteric binding groove undergoes transient fluctuations with amplitudes 6 to 8 Å. We propose that this large-amplitude plasticity enables a multistep selection of functional ligands with variable efficacies. These insights into structural dynamics also provide a rationale for the observation that diffracting crystals are obtained for GPCR complexes with only few of the ligands that bind to the receptors. Comparisons of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) complexes with agonists and antagonists based on X-ray crystallography and cryo-electron microscopy structure determinations show differences in the width of the orthosteric ligand binding groove over the range from 0.3 to 2.9 Å. Here, we show that there are transient structure fluctuations with amplitudes up to at least 6 Å. The experiments were performed with the neurokinin 1 receptor (NK1R), a GPCR of class A that is involved in inflammation, pain, and cancer. We used 19F-NMR observation of aprepitant, which is an approved drug that targets NK1R for the treatment of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting. Aprepitant includes a bis-trifluoromethyl-phenyl ring attached with a single bond to the core of the molecule; 19F-NMR revealed 180° flipping motions of this ring about this bond. In the picture emerging from the 19F-NMR data, the GPCR transmembrane helices undergo large-scale floating motions in the lipid bilayer. The functional implication is of extensive promiscuity of initial ligand binding, primarily determined by size and shape of the ligand, with subsequent selection by unique interactions between atom groups of the ligand and the GPCR within the binding groove. This second step ensures the wide range of different efficacies documented for GPCR-targeting drugs. The NK1R data also provide a rationale for the observation that diffracting GPCR crystals are obtained for complexes with only very few of the ligands from libraries of approved drugs and lead compounds that bind to the receptors.
