Angiotensin-converting enzyme
Dicarboxypeptidase
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) functions primarily as a dicarboxypeptidase that catalyzes the conversion of inactive Angiotensin I (Ang I) to the bioactive peptide Angiotensin II (Ang II), while also degrading bradykinin (BK). ACE plays a crucial role in the regulation of blood pressure and vascular tone, making it an important target in cardiovascular research. This enzyme is widely utilized in biochemical studies aimed at investigating the renin-angiotensin system and its implications in various physiological and pathological processes.
