A new feature of angiotensin-converting enzyme in the brain: hydrolysis of substance P.

Abstract:

:Highly purified rat brain angiotensin-converting enzyme hydrolyzes substance P which contains a C-terminal amino acid with an amidated carboxyl group. The hydrolysis of substance P verified by amino-group fluorometry and by high-performance liquid chromatography is inhibited by captopril, but not by phosphoramidon. The presence of sodium chloride is essential for the hydrolysis. The analyses of cleavage products indicate that the enzyme hydrolyzes substance P between Phe7-Phe8 and Phe8-Gly9 by an endopeptidase action, followed by successive release of dipeptides by a dipeptidyl carboxypeptidase action.

  • The sequence of sites recognised by a member of the RNase E/G family can control the maximal rate of cleavage, while a 5'-monophosphorylated end appears to function cooperatively in mediating RNA binding.

    abstract::Members of the RNase E/G family are multimeric, 5'-end-sensing, single-strand-specific endoribonucleases that are found in chloroplasts as well as bacteria, and have central roles in RNA processing and degradation. A well-studied member of this family is Escherichia coli RNase G. Recently, we have shown that the inter...
