Angiotensin II is bound to both receptors AT1and AT2, parallel to the transmembrane domains and in an extended form

Abstract: (i) athough AT1 and AT2 have quite low sequence homology, they both bind AngII with similar affinity and in an almost identical fashion, as if the ligand dictates the way it has to be bound, and (ii) in its bound form, AngII adopts an extended conformation in both AT1 and AT2, contrary to all previous predictions.

“…D89078) and the bovine rhodopsin (Protein Data Bank: 1L9H) was performed using the program HOMOLOGY. The sequences of the two proteins were aligned so as to match the positions of the following conserved residues: Asn 55 -Asn1.50 36 (the superscripts represent the residue numbering in rhodopsin structure Protein Data Bank code 1F88, and human BLT1 sequence, respectively, and 1.50 is the numbering in the standardized nomenclature), Asp 83 -Asp2.50 64 282 . The coordinates of the identified structurally conserved regions were then transferred to the sequence of the BLT1.…”

“…1 Ang II is an octapeptide hormone (Asp1-Arg2-Val3-Tyr4-Ile5-His6-Pro7-Phe8, DRVYIHPF) that has been studied for several decades in the structure-dependent activity of the biological pathway of the Ang II receptor. [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] Free Ang II molecular structures in solutions have been investigated with a variety of techniques. The results have been reported as β-turn, random coil, hair-pin and other structures.…”

“…[1][2][3][4] Metal ion influences on the biological activity of Ang II have also been investigated. [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] Blood pressure was observed to increase as a result of the influence of Li, Na, Mg, and Ca ions on the renin-angiotensin system.…”
