Melatonin receptors (MT1 and MT2 in humans) are family A G protein–coupled receptors that respond to the neurohormone melatonin to regulate circadian rhythm and sleep. Numerous efforts have been made to develop drugs targeting melatonin receptors for the treatment of insomnia, circadian rhythm disorder, and cancer. However, designing subtype-selective melatonergic drugs remains challenging. Here, we report the cryo-EM structures of the MT1–Gi signaling complex with 2-iodomelatonin and ramelteon and the MT2–Gi signaling complex with ramelteon. These structures, together with the reported functional data, reveal that although MT1 and MT2 possess highly similar orthosteric ligand-binding pockets, they also display distinctive features that could be targeted to design subtype-selective drugs. The unique structural motifs in MT1 and MT2 mediate structural rearrangements with a particularly wide opening on the cytoplasmic side. Gi is engaged in the receptor core shared by MT1 and MT2 and presents a conformation deviating from those in other Gi complexes. Together, our results provide new clues for designing melatonergic drugs and further insights into understanding the G protein coupling mechanism. Melatonin receptors (MT1 and MT2) are the targets for melatonin, the major neurohormone involved in circadian rhythm and sleep regulation. Here the authors describe the structures of 2-iodomelatonin and ramelteon bound MT1–Gi and MT2-Gi, revealing that MT1 and MT2 possess distinctive features within the ligand-binding pocket.
