Abstract excerpt
Many slow dissociating (insurmountable) non-peptide angiotensin type 1 receptor (AT1) antagonists contain,besides the acidic biphenyltetrazole substructure of losartan, a second acidic group to stabilise antagonist-receptor complexes. To investigate the involved basic amino-acids of the human AT1-receptor, wild-type and mutant receptors were transiently transfected in CHO-K1 cells and characterised by...
