It lies in the membrane as shown in Figure 2, and as shown by the <scene name='72/721545/Membrane/5'>fatty acid</scene> bound in the crystallization of LPA<sub>1</sub> in orange. Most <scene name='72/721545/Polarity/3'>polar</scene> (red) reside on the intracellular and extracellular areas of the receptor, while most residues positioned on the trans membrane helices inside the membrane are hydrophobic (blue). A cytochrome b (b<sub>562</sub>RIL) protein was inserted into the third intracellular loop to facilitate crystallization (Figure 2). The intracellular region of this membrane protein is coupled to a [https://www.ebi.ac.uk/interpro/potm/2004_10/Page2.htm heterotrimeric G protein]. | ||
