In a recent issue of Nature, Gomes et al.1 utilized structural, experimental, and computational biology to investigate the ligand-gated activation of BmGr9, an insect gustatory receptor specifically tuned to D-fructose. Together with two other studies published elsewhere, they are the first to describe how sugars bind to insect gustatory receptors.
