The activation of the leptin receptor <ref> Leptin receptor : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leptin_receptor </ref>is done through the '''CRH2, IGD and FN III''' domains <ref>PMID:28270795</ref>. | The activation of the leptin receptor <ref> Leptin receptor : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leptin_receptor </ref>is done through the '''CRH2, IGD and FN III''' domains <ref>PMID:28270795</ref>. | ||
The '''CRH2''' domain is the main leptin binding site on the receptor. This domain is required for the activation of the receptor. It is composed of a region of four consecutive hydrophobic residues. In particular, '''Leu13''' and '''Leu86''' of leptin interact with '''Leu 504''' in CRH2 forming a bond via hydrophobic interactions<ref>PMID: 15923664</ref>. | The '''CRH2''' domain is the main leptin binding site on the receptor.

The '''IGD''' domain has no affinity for leptin but is nevertheless '''required''' for receptor activation. In the absence of this domain, the result is a receptor with a wild-type affinity for leptin. However, the receptor is completely devoid of biological activity. | The '''IGD''' domain has no affinity for leptin but is nevertheless '''required''' for receptor activation.
