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. It lies in the membrane as shown in Figure 2, and as shown by the <scene name='72/721545/Membrane/1'>fatty acid</scene> bound to it in orange. 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 receptor lies in the membrane as shown in Figure 3, and as shown by the <scene name='72/721545/Membrane/1'>fatty acid</scene> bound to it in orange.
