Site 3 of OSM binds to LIFR or OSMR thanks to two residues: Phe160 and Lys163, located in the N-terminal end of helix D. These amino acids are conserved in all cytokines.

[[Image:Osm interact osmr.png|frame|left|Complimentarity between the interaction surfaces of hOSM and gp130.The solvent-accessible surfaces of site 2 on hOSM (left) and the cognate binding site on gp130 (right) are displayed with areas contributed by residues implicated in binding highlighted as coloured patches. The orientation for hOSM site 2 is rotated 90° from that in Figure 4 whereas gp130 is rotated by 180° from its orientation relative to hOSM in the putative interaction complex, as in the opening of a book.]] [[Image:Oncostatin site3.jpg|frame|center]]
