==== Disulfide Bonds ====
The MRGPRX2 disulfide bond is between <scene name='90/904305/Disulfide_bond/1'>Cys-168 and Cys-180</scene> on TM helices 5 and 4, respectively. In other class A GPCRs, this disulfide bond is between and extracellular loop (ECL2) and a TM helix (TM3). For example, the <scene name='90/904306/5ht2a_disulfide/2'>serotonin GPCR</scene> shows this disulfide bond between the ECL2 and TM3. This different disulfide bond location contributes to surface level binding of ligands.
