Metabotropic glutamate receptors and HCN ion channels inside clusters contact their neighbors through structured extracellular and intracellular domains, respectively. Other ion channels, including Kv2.1 and Slo1, appear to form clusters through prominent intrinsically disordered sequences in the cytoplasm. These distinct modes of interaction are associated with clusters exhibiting varying degrees of compactness and order. We conclude that nature utilizes a variety of ways to form connections between membrane proteins in self-assembled clusters.
