The seven transmembrane helices surround a large internal cavity where a <scene name='82/829353/Zinc-binding_site/1'>zinc-binding site</scene> can be found. This cavity located from the cytoplasmic surface to the middle of the outer lipid layer of the membrane has small openings between the helices V and VI, and between the helices IV and VI. It has been assumed that these openings are involved in the entrance and exit of both substrate and product. | The seven transmembrane helices surround a large internal cavity where a <scene name='82/829353/Zinc-binding_site/1'>zinc-binding site</scene> can be found.

In this cavity, there is a zinc ion which is coordinated thanks to three histidine residues. These three histidine residues are <scene name='82/829353/H191/1'>H191</scene> in the helix II, <scene name='82/829353/H337/1'>H337</scene> and <scene name='82/829353/H341/1'>H341</scene> in the helix VII. As a result, the zinc ion is in the intracellular layer of the membrane, in the neighbourhood of 4° deep from the inner surface of the plasma membrane. Thanks to its tetrahedral coordination, this zinc ion binds the helices II, III and VII together. The adiponectin-stimulated AMPK phosphorylation doesn’t directly require the zinc binding site, nevertheless it has been supposed that the zinc ion allows a stabilizing effect. | In this cavity, there is a zinc ion which is coordinated thanks to three histidine residues.

AdipoR1 has the capacity to form oligomers. Indeed, in living cell both monomers and oligomers are present. A specific motif was identified to contribute to the AdipoR1 dimerization: it is the motif GxxxG in the transmembrane helix | AdipoR1 has the capacity to form oligomers. Indeed, in living cell both monomers and oligomers are present. A specific motif was identified to contribute to the AdipoR1 dimerization: it is the motif GxxxG in the transmembrane helix V. Besides, the dimerization of AdipoR1 is also regulated. This dimerization is inhibited by the fixation of the full-length adiponectin while the globular adiponectin has any impact on the dimerization level of the AdipoR1 receptor. Thanks to mutant experiment, it can be supposed that the collagen-like domain of the full-length adiponectin composed of residues 42 to 107 (plus loin dans l’article: 60 à 89…) is responsible to the dimer dissociation. There are strong evidences that dimerization of the AdipoR1 receptor has a role during the biosynthesis, the trafficking and the signalling of the seven transmembrane receptors. | ||
