In the extracellular environment, there is a beta-hairpin in conjugation with two extracellular disulfure bridges.

AngII mediates AT1 receptor activation via stacking interactions between Phe8(AngII)/His256(AT1 receptor) and Tyr4(AngII)/Asn111(AT1 receptor). This phenomenon results in a conformational change in transmembrane (TM)3-TM6 helices and in interaction between TM2 and TM7.
