Structure-functional organization of the angiotensin II molecule. III. Polyfunctional nature

Conformational properties of the molecules of angiotensin II and some of its analogs are analysed with regard to the quantitative characteristics of their biological activities. Connections between low-energy conformations of angiotensin II and its biological functions are established. The hormone's spatial structures plausible in terms of interactions with the specific receptors located in smooth muscles and adrenal cortex tissues have been identified.
