NCIt definition : Angiotensin-converting enzyme (1306 aa, 150 kDa) is encoded by the human ACE gene.
This protein plays a role in the hydrolysis of angiotensin I to form angiotensin II
and the solubilization of glycophophoinositol-anchored proteins from the plasma membrane.;
NCIt note : Angiotensin-converting enzyme exhibits both peptidase and glycosidase activity.;
