Three labs discovered in the same time these two receptors so they were some confusion about the nomenclature. So in 1991 a group of searchers met to define a coherent nomenclature. ''Finally, around 2015, researchers the crystal structure of the receptor in complex with its antagonist ZD7155 and with an inverse agonist olmesartan'' <ref>  </ref>. They used x-ray cryogenic-crystallography. They found similar conformation of the receptor when it is linked to the antagonist or to the inverse agonist. They also found conserved molecular recognition modes. So to complete the discovery, they realized some experiments with mutants to identify the different residues which interact with the ligand.

Since angiotensin receptor is involved in the renin-angiotenisin system, it represents a choice target to cure some diseases like hypertension or heart failure.

This is a sample scene created with SAT to <scene name="/12/3456/Sample/1">color</scene> by Group, and another to make <scene name="/12/3456/Sample/2">a transparent representation</scene> of the protein. You can make your own scenes on SAT starting from scratch or loading and editing one of these sample scenes.
