Abstract
Scanning mutagenesis of transmembrane domain 3 of the M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor has revealed a highly-differentiated α-helical structure. Lipid-facing residues are distinguished from a patch of residues which selectively stabilise the ground state of the receptor, and from a band of amino acids extending the full length of the helix, which contribute to the active agonist-receptor-G protein complex. The most important residues are strongly conserved in the GPCR superfamily.
