Peptide inhibitors of angiotensin I-converting enzyme (peptidyldipeptide hydrolase, EC 3.4.15.1) were produced by digesting gelatin with bacterial collagenase. The inhibitors were isolated from the digests with a combination of alcohol fractionation, treatment with Amberlite CG-50 column, gel filtration through Sephadex G-25, and Dowex 50 column and paper chromatography. Nine peptide fractions were purified to apparent homogeneity judging by thin-layer and ion-exchange column chromatography, and amino acid composition. Amino acid sequences of the peptides were determined: 2 were found to be mixtures of peptides and the sequence of another was only partially determined. Six of the peptides were potent inhibitors of the converting enzyme, while the other three were less active. 6 peptides were substrates for the enzyme. The enzyme released a dipeptide, Ala-Hyp from one peptide and was strongly inhibited by this dipeptide. The remainder of the parent peptides was a less effective inhibitor.  相似文献

The latent production of angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) Inhibitors from tartary buckwheat (BW) was investigated, and the peptides responsible for ACE inhibition characterized. Intact buckwheat was found to exhibit ACE inhibitory activity having an IC50 value of 3.0 mg/ml. The activity of the protein fraction (IC50: 0.36 mg protein/ml) was not enhanced by pepsin treatment. Pepsin, followed by chymotrypsin and trypsin hydrolysis, resulted in a significant increase in the ACE inhibitory activity (IC50: 0.14 mg protein/ml). The rutin contained in the buckwheat did not exhibit any ACE inhibition. A single oral administration of BW digest lowered the systolic blood pressure of a spontaneously hypertensive rat. Thus, BW proteins offer a potential resource for producing ACE inhibitory peptides during the digestion process. From the di-/tri-peptide fraction (DTPF) of the BW digest, inhibitory peptides were identified. The magnitude (%) of the total ACE inhibitory contribution of each identified peptide, relative to the overall inhibition of the DTPF, was about 41%.  相似文献

The inhibition constants (Ki) and modes of inhibition have been determined for a series of dipeptide-hydroxamate compounds with bovine lung parenchyma angiotensin I-converting enzyme (peptidyldipeptide carboxy-hydrolase, E.C. 3.4. 15.1). The hydroxamido function was borne by aspartic, glutamic, or aminoadipic acid and extended by 2, 3 or 4 bond lengths from the proline amide bond. L-glu(NHOH)-L-pro (Ki = 3.4 microM) and D,L-aminoadipicyl (NHOH)-L-pro (Ki = 1.2 microM) were the best competitive inhibitors of the hydrolysis of benzoyl-gly-his-gly but were not effective as affinity ligands for purification of the enzyme.  相似文献

Angiotensin I-converting enzyme (peptidyl dipeptide hydrolase, EC 3.4.15.1) was solubilized from the membrane fraction of human lung using trypsin treatment and purfied using columns of DE 52-cellulose, hydroxyapatite and Sephadex G-200. The purified enzyme was shown to convert angiotensin I to angiotensin II and also to inactivate bradykinin. The specific activity of the enzyme was 9.5 units/mg protein for Hippuryl-His-Leu-OH and 0.665 mumol/min per mg protein for angiotensin I. The enzymic activity obtained after trypsin treatment (1 mg/200 mg protein) for 2 h could be divided into three components: (i) an enzyme of molecular weight 290 000 (peak I), (ii) an enzyme of molecular weight 180 000 (peak II) and (iii) an enzyme of molecular weight 98 000 (peak III), by columns of DE 52-cellulose and Sephadex G-200. Km values of peak I, II and III fraction for Hippuryl-His-Leu-OH were identical at 1.1 mM. pH optimum of the enzyme was 8.3 for Hippuryl-His-Leu-OH.  相似文献

Inhibition of rabbit lung angiotensin I-converting enzyme was studied with two inhibitors that combined tricyclic mimics of a substrate C-terminal dipeptide recognition unit with a 4-phenylbutanoic acid fragment. The overall inhibition constant for [4S-[4 alpha, 7 alpha(R*),12b beta]]-7-[S-(1-carboxy-3-phenylpropyl) amino]-1,2,3,4,6,7,8,12b-octahydro-6-oxopyrido[2,1-a] [2] benzazepine-4-carboxylic acid (MDL 27,088) was approximately 4 pM, whereas that for [4R-[4 alpha, 7 alpha(S*), 12b beta]]-7-[S-(1-carboxy-3-phenylpropyl)amino]-3,4,6,7,8, 12b-hexahydro-6-oxo-1H-[1,4]thiazino[3,4-a] [2]benzazepine-4-carboxylic acid (MDL 27,788) was estimated to be 46 pM. The formation of an initial complex of target enzyme and MDL 27,088 and its slower isomerization to a second complex were characterized kinetically. Both compounds appear to be among the most potent inhibitors known for this enzyme.  相似文献

Novel analogues of the angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor keto-ACE were synthesized via a facile Horner-Emmons olefination of a phosphonoketone precursor with ethyl glyoxylate. Introduction of a bulky aromatic tryptophan at the P(2)(') position of keto-ACE resulted in a significant increase in C-domain-selectivity.  相似文献

In order to elucidate the mechanism of the antihypertensive action of dried bonito (katsuobushi), we compared the effects of dried bonito extracts with those of captopril, an angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, on aorta preparations isolated from rats. Dried bonito extracts (3 x 10(-4) to 3 x 10(-3) g/ml) more potently relaxed contractions induced by norepinephrine (10(-7) M) than contractions induced by KCl (55.9 mM). Dried bonito extracts (3 x 10(-3) g/ml) slightly inhibited 10(-7) M angiotensin I-induced contractions. In contrast, captopril (10(-8) to 10(-7) M) did not affect 10(-7) M norepinephrine- or 55.9 mM KCl-induced contractions, but a higher concentration of captopril (10(-6) M) very slightly relaxed it. Captopril (10(-8) to 10(-6) M) markedly inhibited 10(-7) M angiotensin I-induced contractions in a concentration-dependent manner. These results suggest that antihypertensive mechanism of action induced by dried bonito involves direct action on vascular smooth muscle in addition to ACE-inhibitory activity.  相似文献

Approximately 50-fold purification of angiotensin I-converting enzyme (Peptidyldipeptide hydrolase, EC 3.4.15.1) from rabbit lung was achieved by affinity chromatography using the synthetic substrate Hippuryl-His-Leu-OH. The specific activity of the enzyme was increased from 0.044 units/mg protein to 1.911 units/mg protein for Hippuryl-His-Leu-OH and from 0.33 nmol/min per mg protein to 13.8 nmol/min per mg protein for angiotensin I.  相似文献

The endothelial angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE; EC 3.4.15.1) has recently been shown to contain two large homologous domains (called here the N and C domains), each being a zinc-dependent dipeptidyl carboxypeptidase. To further characterize the two active sites of ACE, we have investigated their interaction with four competitive ACE inhibitors, which are all potent antihypertensive drugs. The binding of [3H] trandolaprilat to the two active sites was examined using the wild-type ACE and four ACE mutants each containing only one intact domain, the other domain being either deleted or inactivated by point mutation of the zinc-coordinating histidines. In contrast with all the previous studies, which suggested the presence of a single high affinity inhibitor binding site in ACE, the present study shows that both the N and C domains of ACE contain a high affinity inhibitor binding site (KD = 3 and 1 X 10(-10) M, respectively, at pH 7.5, 4 degrees C, and 100 mM NaCl). Chloride stabilizes the enzyme-inhibitor complex for each domain primarily by slowing its dissociation rate, as the k-1 values of the N and C domains are markedly decreased (about 30- and 1100-fold, respectively) by 300 mM NaCl. At high chloride concentrations, the chloride effect is much greater for the C domain than for the N domain resulting in a higher affinity of this inhibitor for the C domain. In addition, the inhibitory potency of captopril (C), enalaprilat (E), and lisinopril (L) for each domain was assayed by hydrolysis of Hip-His-Leu. Their Ki values for the two domains are all within the nanomolar range, indicating that they are all highly potent inhibitors for both domains. However, their relative potencies are different for the C domain (L greater than E greater than C) and the N domain (C greater than E greater than L). The different inhibitor binding properties of the two domains observed in the present study provide strong evidence for the presence of structural differences between the two active sites of ACE.  相似文献

Angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) assays are commonly used for measuring enzymatic activity in clinical and biological samples. The fluorimetric procedure described is sensitive, rapid and involves unsophisticated procedures and inexpensive reagents. It uses the substrate hippuryl-L-histidyl-L-leucine, and the fluorescent adduct of the enzyme-catalyzed product L-histidyl-L-leucine is quantified fluorimetrically. This assay has been adapted for a 96-well plate format that produces comparable data to previously described assays and has the advantage of greater efficiency with respect to both time and reagents. The protocol can be used for routine purposes or for more detailed kinetic analyses. The apparent Km and kcat values for purified testis ACE determined from a double reciprocal plot were 3.0 mM and 195.7 s(-1), respectively. The protocol can be completed within 4 h.  相似文献

Human angiotensin I-converting enzyme gene and endurance performance.   总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15  
Human physical performance is strongly influenced by genetic factors. A variation in the structure of the human angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) gene has been reported in which the insertion (I) variant is associated with lower ACE levels than the deletion (D) gene. We have previously reported that the I variant was associated with improved endurance performance in high-altitude mountaineers and British Army recruits. We now examine this genotype distribution in 91 British Olympic-standard runners (79 Caucasians). DNA was extracted from the buccal cells contained in 10 ml of saline mouthwash donated by the subjects, and the I and D variants of the ACE gene were identified by PCR amplification of the polymorphic region. There was an increasing frequency of the I allele with distance run [0.35, 0.53, and 0.62 for /=5,000 m (n = 34), respectively; P = 0.009 for linear trend]. Among 404 Olympic-standard athletes from 19 other mixed sporting disciplines (in which endurance performance was not necessarily a key factor), the I allele did not differ significantly from that found in control subjects: 0.50 vs. 0.49 (P = 0.526). These results support a positive association of the I allele with elite endurance performance.  相似文献

Polymerase chain amplification experiments indicate that the germinal specific promoter of the angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) is completely extinguished in somatic tissues. Despite this very strict specificity of expression, the germinal ACE promoter is active in transient transfection experiments in two somatic cell lines and one cell line of germinal origin. The analysis of the promoter shows the existence two regulatory elements within the first 350 bp: a proximal positive element and a distal negative element.  相似文献

Testicular angiotensin I-converting enzyme (E.C. 3.4.15.1)   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

In the two mammalian species (i.e., rabbit and rat) in which it has been studied to date, testicular angiotensin I-converting enzyme possesses distinct physicochemical and immunological properties, and a susceptibility to hormonal regulation that makes it a unique isozyme of the converting enzyme ordinarily distributed throughout the body. The testicular isozyme appears to be a lower molecular weight version of the pulmonary enzyme, with similar, although not identical, catalytic properties. The testicular isozyme is under androgenic control and is associated with germinal cells. Although its function has yet to be elaborated, the testicular isozyme provides an excellent model for the study of tissue-specific regulation of carboxypeptidases.  相似文献

To simplify the method of ACE-inhibitory peptide production, defatted canola meal was subjected to enzymatic proteolysis. Alcalase 2.4L and protease M “Amano” were found to be the most efficient enzymes in releasing ACE-inhibitory peptides from canola proteins among 13 tested enzymes. The IC50 values of canola protein hydrolysates ranged from 18.1 to 82.5 μg protein/mL. Differences in ACE-inhibitory activities of various protein hydrolysates reflected varied enzyme specificities. A positive correlation was determined between ACE-inhibitory activity and the degree of hydrolysis (r = 0.5916, p < 0.001). Ion-exchange chromatography of canola protein hydrolysate increased the protein content greater than 95% without loss of ACE-inhibitory activity. This fraction was resistant to the degradation of gastrointestinal enzyme and ACE during in vitro incubation and may be a useful ingredient in the formulation of hypotensive functional food products.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to measure angiotensin I-converting activity in heart, kidney, lung and cheek pouch tissue homogenates of spontaneously hypertensive and normotensive hamsters. We also determined inhibitor sensitivity and the effects of chloride anion concentration on kidney angiotensin I-converting activity in these animals. We found no significant differences in angiotensin I-converting activity between hypertensive and normotensive hamsters in all tissues tested. Inhibitor sensitivity of kidney angiotensin I-converting activity with captopril and lisonopril was similar in both groups. Finally, kidney angiotensin I-converting activity increased significantly in both groups as chloride anion concentration in the assay buffer increased. Substituting chloride anion for citrate abrogated the increase in angiotensin I-converting enzyme activity.  相似文献

Human plasma and atypical lung converting enzyme, and porcine plasma converting enzyme are substantially inhibited by other components of the renin-angiotensin system, and by angiotensin II and its analogues. Des-Asp1 angiotensin II (angiotensin III) 0.1 mM and tridecapeptide renin substrate 0.1 mM are both effective inhibitors of human lung, plasma and porcine plasma converting enzymes. Des-Asp1-Arg2 angiotensin II also was an effective inhibitor of plasma enzymes. Bradykininase activity (kininase II) of the converting enzymes was also inhibited by angiotensin I, angiotensin III, tetradecapeptide renin substrate and tridecapeptide renin substrate. The substantial kininase and converting enzyme inhibitory effects of components of the renin-angiotensin system, suggest a potential close physiologic relationship between the kallikrein-kinin system and the renin-angiotensin system.  相似文献

Inhibition of angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) has become an effective strategy in the treatment of hypertension and cardiovascular disease. Keto-ACE, a previously described C-domain selective ACE inhibitor, was used as the basis for the design, synthesis and molecular modelling of a series of novel ketomethylene derivatives for which ACE inhibition profiles and structural characterisation are reported. Ki determinations indicated that the introduction of a bulky aromatic tryptophan at the P2' position of keto-ACE significantly increased selectivity for the C-domain, while an aliphatic P2 Boc group conferred N-domain selectivity. These data were supported by the potential energies of the compounds docked with the C- and N-domains of ACE.  相似文献
