In this artist's depiction, cryo-EM structures of GABAB captured in four different conformations along its activation transition appear on a neuronal synapse (background) while the structure of the GABAB receptor in the active state with agonist (orange spheres) bound in GB1 (blue) and a PAM (magenta spheres) bound on the transmembrane interface between GB1 and GB2 (yellow) appears in close-up.
