Following structural highlights are different to receptors of this family: The well-known conserved D-R-Y motif is in fact the <scene name='86/868179/D-r-s_motif/2'>D138-R139-S140</scene> motif in GnRH1R. An intrahelical [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_bridge_(protein_and_supramolecular salt bridge] is observed between D138 and R139, as well as a polar interaction between R139 and T265 (This interaction restricts the outward movement of those TMs associated with GPCR activation). The <scene name='86/868179/N-terminus/6'>N-terminal region</scene> (aa 18–33) before TM1 is well folded and appears inserted into the orthostatic binding cavity.

This structure belongs to the numerous structures of GPCR currently published. The G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily comprises an estimated 600–1,000 members and is the largest known class of molecular targets with proven therapeutic value. They play an incredible role in a range of functions in the human body, and increased understanding of these receptors has greatly affected modern medicine. In fact, researchers estimate that between one-third and one-half of the marketed drugs act by binding to GPCRs.
