Chemokine receptor antagonists have potential applications in field of drug discovery. Although the chemokine receptors are G-protein-coupled receptors, their cognate ligands are small proteins (8 to 12 kDa), and so inhibiting the ligand/receptor interaction has been challenging. In particular, CCR2 and CCR5 and their ligands have been implicated in the pathophysiology of a number of diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis. Based on their roles in disease, they have been attractive targets for the pharmaceutical industry, targeting both CCR2 and CCR5 could be a useful strategy. Because of the importance of these receptors, providing information regarding the binding site is of prime importance. Herein, we report the comparison of CCR2 of CCR5 binding sites both sequentially as well as structurally. We also urged the importance of crucial residues in the binding site, to facilitate the development of dual antagonists targeting both the receptors. These results could also be useful for the design of novel and potent dual CCR2 and CCR5 antagonists using structure based drug design.
