Gestational changes in pulmonary converting enzyme activity in the fetal rabbit.

abstract：RATIONALE:Circumstantial evidence links the development of heart failure to posttranslational modifications of mitochondrial proteins, including lysine acetylation (Kac). Nonetheless, direct evidence that Kac compromises mitochondrial performance remains sparse. OBJECTIVE:This study sought to explore the premise that ...
