The MRGPRX2 <scene name='90/904306/Sodium_site_2/1'>sodium binding site</scene> consists of ASP-75 and GLY-116 compared to the [https://proteopedia.org/wiki/index.php/Neurotensin_receptor#sodium%20binding%20pocket previously conserved] residues in this binding pocket. Other class A GPCRs demonstrate a larger binding pocket with a higher negative character allowing for a suitable environment for sodium ions to bind. In MRGPRX2, this pocket lacks the same amount of <scene name='90/904306/Sodium_site_charge/1'>negative character</scene> and the helices are more collapsed making this binding pocket less accessible for sodium ions.

In MRGPRX2, this pocket lacks the same amount of <scene name='90/904306/Sodium_site_charge/2'>negative character</scene> with the shift to a glycine residue rather than typical negative residues. The helices for the MRGPRX2 in the binding pocket are also more collapsed making this pocket less accessible for sodium ions.
