The LPA1 receptor consists of seven transmembrane alpha helices. There are more <scene name='72/721545/Polarity/1'>polar</scene> (red) resides on the intercellular and extracellular areas of the receptor, while most residues positioned inside the membrane are hydrophobic (blue). | The LPA1 receptor consists of seven transmembrane alpha helices.

The <scene name='72/721545/Ligand/1'>binding pocket</scene> for LPA inside the receptor consists of both polar and nonpolar residues. There are polar residues on the N terminus and along one side of the binding pocket. There is also a large hydrophobic pocket for the long acyl chain of LPA. | The <scene name='72/721545/Ligand/1'>binding pocket</scene> for LPA inside the receptor consists of both polar and nonpolar residues.
