Uence alignments (Figure 4, bold and underlined) and conservation in all sequences determined. Of all the natural variants known, only amino acid 517, present as a Phe, is conserved in 10781694 all three receptors; this is also conserved in Rhodopsin and many other GPCRs. The Table S1 reveals several potentially functional amino acids at 224 (Asp), 336 (Leu), 725 (Asn) and 729 (Asn) that are conserved in all three receptors. Of these only 725 (Asn) is not conserved in Rhodopsin and thus represents a possible target for specific interaction with Ang peptides conserved in AT1, AT2 and MAS. Combining a structural model of AT1 with the functionally conserved amino acids seen in sequence alignments (using the same coloring for identification of conservation) reveals that amino acid 725 (Asn) is found in the Title Loaded From File binding pocket of all three receptors (Figure 5). Amino acids 118, 231, 233, 268, 334, 337, 508, 622, and 719 are conserved in the binding pockets of AT1, AT2 and MAS but are not conserved in Rhodopsin (Figure 5, green), all suggesting potential interactions with Ang peptides. Only aminoDocking Ang PeptidesTo identify the best docking sites in each model, the dock_runensemble macro (http://www.yasara.org/macros.htm) was used with default twenty docking experiments of the ligand on six possible ensembles of the receptor for AT1 or MAS 16985061 with ?Ang II or Ang-(1?). The simulation square was 30 A on the x, y, and z axis and placed in the proposed binding site. As the initial model had problems with the extracellular domains filling the active site, the region between helix 4 and 5 was deleted to open up the active site. The top ten docking results of each Nce of detecting changes in renal function at an early stage. independent run were then treated with the docking_EM_analysis macro (Docking_EM_analysis S1) calculating the potential energy of the receptor, potential energy of the ligand, binding energy of the ligand and movement of the energy minimized structures from the initial structure. For each receptor/ligand data set (containing ten complexes) rankings for the highest value for each binding energy of the ten members of the experiment were made and the scores compiled with the three lowest values selected for further treatment. The top three of each energy minimized receptor/ligand complex were then analyzed by showing the amino acids conserved among AT1, AT2, and MAS or by binding the ligand to the other receptors with the Docking_EM_top3 macro (Docking_EM_top3 S1). In short, each of the three possible ligand confirmations of the complexes were energy minimized to AT1, AT2, MAS, or Rhodopsin and the potential energy of the receptor and the binding energy of the ligand was calculated. A forced docking experiment (known as initial docking) was also conducted using the known biochemical data of amino acids 512 (Lys) and 621 (His). To create this model the first of the multiple Ang II peptide models as determined by NMR [27] was manually placed so that the C-terminus of Ang II is interacting with amino acid 512 [28,29] (Lys) and amino acid 8 (Phe) of Ang II interacting with 621 (His) [30]. Twenty manual dockings (all of which had slightly different orientations of amino acid 8) were performed using energy minimizations of the AT1 model in a lipid membrane, and binding energies were calculated to determine the top three forced dockings. These top three were then run through the Docking_EM_top3 macro and compared to the top binding energy of the docking experiments above.
