The channel has three sets of small hydrophobic depressions, termed '''halogen binding pockets (HBPs)'''. But then, when the side chain of the TTR changes of conformation, these pockets can realise more hydrogen bonds with other molecules, they can be donor or acceptor.  Thus, they had this name due to their ability to bind the iodines of thyroxine (T4) its natural ligand <ref name="Labaudinière">Labaudinière R.

At the entry of the binding site, the TTR has a hydrophilic tail, into which the four iodine atoms of the ligand are placed. The dimer interface of the TTR is divided in two part, the inner and the outer binding cavity. The outermost pockets <scene name='82/829358/Hbp1/3'>HBP1</scene> and <scene name='82/829358/Hbp1prim/3'>HBP1'</scene> are located between the side chains of <scene name='82/829358/Hbp1aa/1'>Ala 108, Thr 106, Met 13 and Lys 15</scene> <ref name= "Klabunde">PMID: 10742177</ref>.

The innermost binding pockets, <scene name='82/829358/Hbp3/3'>HBP3</scene> and <scene name='82/829358/Hbp3prim/2'>HBP3'</scene>, are located between the side chains of <scene name='82/829358/Hbp3aa/2'>Ser 117, Thr 119, Ala 108 and Leu 110</scene>. Their surfaces are composed of aliphatic methyl and methylene groups, as well as the Ser 117 hydroxyl group, the carbonyl groups of Ser 117, Thr 118 and Ala 108, and the main chain NH groups of Thr 119, Ala 109 and Leu 110.
