Na+ Binding Pocket
W321, which is positioned at the bottom of the hydrophobic pocket(green link from allie), sets the top of the Na+ Binding Pocket. The Na+ ion binding pocket acts as a negative allosteric site for G protein activity. When Na+ enters the Na+ ion binding pocket, it interacts with Asp 113, and shuts down the activity of the protein. When the G protein is in its active state, the Na+ ion binding pocket is collapsed, preventing the entrance of Na+.

This is a sample scene created with SAT to color by Group, and another to make a transparent representation of the protein. You can make your own scenes on SAT starting from scratch or loading and editing one of these sample scenes.
