Description : Angiotensin I-converting enzyme (EC 3.4.15.1), or kininase II, is a dipeptidyl carboxypeptidase
that plays an important role in blood pressure regulation and electrolyte balance
by hydrolyzing angiotensin I into angiotensin II, a potent vasopressor, and aldosterone-stimulating
peptide. The enzyme is also able to inactivate bradykinin, a potent vasodilator.;
