Although studies determining the structure of GLP-1 bound to the N-terminal, extracellular domain of the receptor showed that the residues 13-33 of the GLP-1 peptide analogs form a helical structure (PDB ID 3iol, Underwood et al., 2010), recent EM structures of the whole receptor bound to the GLP-1 protein (PDB ID 6x18, Zhang et al., 2020) shows that the entire GLP-1 peptide forms a long helix as it binds to its receptor
