Fig. 3. The structure of the ligand-binding core of GluR 2 in complex with D-serine. (A) The D-serine-binding site of GluR 2–S1S2. The F[o] – F[c] electron-density map of D-serine before introduction of this molecule in the refinements is shown. D-serine and potential hydrogen-bonding residues of GluR 2 are represented as sticks, and dashed lines indicate hydrogen bonds. (B) Contour of the ligand-binding cavity of GluR 2–S1S2 in complex with D-serine (shown in gray). D-serine and GluR 2 residues within 3.5 Å are represented as sticks. No water molecules were located within the hydrogen-bonding distance of D-serine.
