Biodegradable ionic liquids Part II. Effect of the anion and toxicology

MT Garcia, N Gathergood, PJ Scammells - Green Chemistry, 2005 - pubs.rsc.org
Although ionic liquids are generally referred to in a ‘green’ context, little is known about their
degradation in the environment. Part I of this series focused on the biodegradability of the …

Design strategies for bivalent ligands targeting GPCRs

J Shonberg, PJ Scammells, B Capuano - ChemMedChem, 2011 - Wiley Online Library
Specifically designed bivalent ligands targeting G protein‐coupled receptor (GPCR) dimeric
structures have become increasingly popular in recent literature. The advantages of the …

Biased agonism at G protein‐coupled receptors: the promise and the challenges—a medicinal chemistry perspective

J Shonberg, L Lopez, PJ Scammells… - Medicinal research …, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
Historically, determination of G protein‐coupled receptor (GPCR) ligand efficacy has often
been restricted to identifying the ligand as an agonist or antagonist at a given signaling …

Biodegradable ionic liquids: Part I. Concept, preliminary targets and evaluation

N Gathergood, MT Garcia, PJ Scammells - Green chemistry, 2004 - pubs.rsc.org
The design, preparation and evaluation of biodegradable ionic liquids containing ester or
amide groups in the alkyl side chain are presented. Factors improving the biodegradation of …

Biodegradable ionic liquids Part III. The first readily biodegradable ionic liquids

N Gathergood, PJ Scammells, MT Garcia - Green Chemistry, 2006 - pubs.rsc.org
Further research toward the discovery of biodegradable ionic liquids (ILs) is described
herein. The biodegradability of the target ILs was evaluated using the ‘Closed Bottle’ and ‘CO2 …

Ionic liquids: the neglected issues

PJ Scammells, JL Scott, RD Singer - Australian Journal of …, 2005 - CSIRO Publishing
There has been an explosion of interest in ionic liquids in the last five years that has resulted
in the discovery of a vast number of new ionic liquids with a wide range of interesting …

[HTML][HTML] The role of kinetic context in apparent biased agonism at GPCRs

…, T Coudrat, J Shonberg, PJ Scammells… - Nature …, 2016 - nature.com
Biased agonism describes the ability of ligands to stabilize different conformations of a
GPCR linked to distinct functional outcomes and offers the prospect of designing pathway-specific …

[PDF][PDF] Structure of the adenosine A1 receptor reveals the basis for subtype selectivity

…, AT Nguyen, EA Vecchio, M Jörg, PJ Scammells… - Cell, 2017 - cell.com
The adenosine A 1 receptor (A 1 -AR) is a G-protein-coupled receptor that plays a vital role
in cardiac, renal, and neuronal processes but remains poorly targeted by current drugs. We …

Biodegradable pyridinium ionic liquids: design, synthesis and evaluation

JR Harjani, RD Singer, MT Garcia, PJ Scammells - Green Chemistry, 2009 - pubs.rsc.org
A range of ionic liquids (ILs) with a pyridinium cation were synthesised and their biodegradability
was evaluated using the CO2 Headspace test (ISO 14593). ILs bearing an ester side …
