<scene name='10/1038869/Bypass_overview/3'>Highlighted Bypass Motif on Rat Amylin</scene>
The <scene name='10/1038869/Bypass_overview/3'>Bypass Motif</scene> is a series of residues in the midsection of the amylin peptide that are crucial for providing structural specificity for the AMYR. Without RAMP association, the CTR is in a relaxed, fluid state, allowing the binding of calcitonin. When RAMP binds the receptor, it is forced into a new, rigid conformation, which interferes with calcitonin binding. Amylin's bypass motif
