interaction between receptor's modellers and biologists, but to start modelling, at least<br />
some firm st<strong>ru</strong>ctural data must be available. This is not the case for the G protein<br />
coupled receptors : the only available x-ray st<strong>ru</strong>cture is that of bacteriorhodopsin that<br />
possesses seven transmembrane helices related to that of the receptors. The<br />
arrangement of the helices can be predicted in the receptor, but their fiability must still<br />
be validated. There is not data on the st<strong>ru</strong>cture, or the folding of the aminoterminal<br />
extracellular domain of the receptor and as detailed in this review this domain is<br />
particularly important for ligand binding. Several laboratories try to produce sufficient<br />
amounts of the isolated aminoterminal domain to try a crystallisation of this large part<br />
of the receptor, but there is still no reported success in the literature.<br />
