Description
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) is a zinc-containing dipeptidyl carboxypeptidase anchored in the plasma membrane with a carboxy-terminal hydrophobic domain (1, 2). ACE has a critical role in cardiovascular function because it catalyses the conversion of angiotensin I to the physiologically active vasopressor octapeptide angiotensin II, which controls fluid-electrolyte balance and systemic blood pressure (3, 4). Inhibitors of ACE are a first line of therapy for hypertension, heart failure, myocardial infarction and diabetic nephropathy (4). ACE also plays a critical role in the circulating or endocrine renin-angiotensin system (RAS) as well as the local regulation that exists in tissues such as the myocardium and skeletal muscle (5).
