Functions | In response to lowered blood pressure, the enzyme renin cleaves angiotensin-1, from angiotensinogen. ACE (angiotensin converting enzyme) then removes a dipeptide to yield the physiologically active peptide angiotensin-2, the most potent pressor substance known, which helps regulate volume and mineral balance of body fluids (By similarity). Angiotensin-3 stimulates aldosterone release (By similarity). |
