Triggering the signal : The backbone structure of the nine amino acid neuropeptide bradykinin (see picture) bound to the human G‐protein coupled bradykinin subtype 2 receptor has been determined by solid‐state NMR spectroscopy. Torsion‐angle constraints based on 13 C chemical shifts were used for structure calculation, which revealed an elongated conformation with an α‐helical turn at the N terminus and a β turn at the C terminus.
