Abstract

Angiotensin I [Phe 8-His 9] hydrolase produced a pressor substance (probably angiotensin II) from synthetic tetradecapeptide renin substrate but not from human renin substrate. The activity of angiotensin I [Phe 8-His 9] hydrolase was effectively inhibited by cupric ion. Tetradecapeptide renin substrate was also shown to competitively inhibit angiotensin I hydrolysis by angiotensin I [Phe 8-His 9] hydrolase.
