Figure 4: Side-chain interactions between Leu 272 and residues in TM3, TM5 and intracellular loop 2. Packing interactions are reflected in lower B-factors for these amino acids. The average B value of residues 135, 141, 219, 222, 272 and 275 is 117 Å^2, compared to 157 Å^2 for the receptor as a whole.
