The overall pocket in GnRH1R is defined by the N terminus, TM2, TM3, TM5, TM6, and TM7, forming a highly hydrophobic <scene name='86/868179/Gnrh1_colored/5'>binding site</scene> with a few polar residues (D98, N102, K121, and N305)

The orthosteric binding pocket of GnRH1R is solvent-accessible, appears relatively shallow and a plasticity is indicated with respect to different ligands. Structural analysis provides the possibility to design orally deliverable small molecules with activity towards the receptor.
