In the extracellular environment, there is a beta-hairpin in conjugation with <scene name='82/829348/Disulfuric_bridge/1'>two extracellular disulfure bridges</scene>. This structure is responsible for the opening and the locking of the ligand binding pocket <ref | In the extracellular environment, there is a beta-hairpin in conjugation with <scene name='82/829348/Disulfuric_bridge/1'>two extracellular disulfure bridges</scene>.

The ligand goes into an <scene name='82/829348/Ligand_blinding_pocket/1'>hydrophilic pocket</scene> created into the membrane thanks to the 7 alpha helix which create a gate between the membrane and the extracellular environment. | ||
AngII mediates AT1 receptor activation via stacking interactions between Phe8(AngII)/<scene name='82/829348/His_256/1'>His256</scene>(AT1 receptor) and Tyr4(AngII)/<scene name='82/829348/Asn_111/1'>Asn111</scene>(AT1 receptor). This phenomenon results in a conformational change in transmembrane (TM)3-TM6 helices and in interaction between TM2 and TM7. | AngII mediates AT1 receptor activation via stacking interactions between Phe8(AngII)/<scene name='82/829348/His_256/1'>His256</scene>(AT1 receptor) and Tyr4(AngII)/<scene name='82/829348/Asn_111/1'>Asn111</scene>(AT1 receptor).
