Brief description The hormone angiotensin II (AngII) contributes broadly to the cardiovascular, endocrine, neural and metabolic systems. It binds to the angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor and inappropriate activity leads to hypertension. Using a range of molecular and biophysical approaches and the angiotensin receptor as a model GPCR, we will study the role of the cell membrane in AT1 activation which may lead to new approaches for drug design.
