Previous research showed that disruption of the Cys(18)-Cys(274) bond in the angiotensin II (AngII) AT₁ receptor mutant (C18S), expressed in CHO cells, causes an increase in the basal activity and attenuation of the maximum response to AngII. In addition, this mutant was mostly intracellularly di...
