<scene name='10/1038828/Ramp_ctr_interface/9'>RAMP CTR Interface </scene> is a key interaction that stabilizes the protein complex and positions the receptor to favorably bind to amylin. The RAMP-CTR interface extends into the plasma membrane, providing additional non-covalent bonding between the protein complex and the cell membrane. | <scene name='10/1038828/Ramp_ctr_interface/9'>RAMP CTR Interface </scene> is a key interaction that stabilizes the protein complex and positions the receptor to favorably bind to amylin.

The extracellular domain of the CTR primarily contains polar residues in the extracellular space. In order to orient these residues | The extracellular domain of the CTR primarily contains polar residues in the extracellular space. In order to orient these residues to facilitate amylin binding, <scene name='10/1038828/Ctr_ramp_ecd_stablization/7'>RAMP makes hydrogen bonds with the CTR</scene> to increase the rigidity of the receptor binding site. | ||
