The determination of the crystal structure of AGT has enabled the effects of some of the most important missense mutations in the AGXT gene to be rationalised in terms ofAGT folding, dimerization and stability, which has opened up new possibilities for the design pharmacological agents that might counteract the destabilizing effects of these mutations.
