One of models for the receptor’s activation explains that interactions between ectodomain and extracellular loops would inhibit the activity of serpentine domain in the absence of stimulation. But when THS is binding to LRD, the ectodomain would have a change of conformation which activates the transduction of the signal. | One of models for the receptor’s activation explains that interactions between ectodomain and extracellular loops would inhibit the activity of serpentine domain in the absence of stimulation.
