Snippet: A zinc metalloenzyme, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) was discovered 64 years ago and first named as a hypertension-converting enzyme (1) . Classically, ACE is well known for its roles in the regulation of arterial pressure through conversion of angiotensin I to active angiotensin II and cleavage of bradykinin and neurotensin (2) . As a zinc metalloenzyme ACE belongs to a large cluster of zinc-binding proteins. The first zinc metalloenzyme, c.....
Document: A zinc metalloenzyme, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) was discovered 64 years ago and first named as a hypertension-converting enzyme (1) . Classically, ACE is well known for its roles in the regulation of arterial pressure through conversion of angiotensin I to active angiotensin II and cleavage of bradykinin and neurotensin (2) . As a zinc metalloenzyme ACE belongs to a large cluster of zinc-binding proteins. The first zinc metalloenzyme, carbonic anhydrase was discovered in 1932 by Meldrum and Roughton (3) and thereafter thousands of such metalloenzymes have been reported in different species of all phyla (4, 5) .
