HEPTAPEPTIDES AND THE USE THEREOF FOR CONTROLLING HYPERTENSION

摘要

The present invention relates to angiotensin-converting-enzyme (ACE) inhibitor heptapeptides. The invention also relates to the process for producing the peptides of the invention by means of biotechnological strategies and therefore, furthermore, relates to the nucleic acid, the expression cassette and the vector that encodes said peptides, and also to the host cell that comprises said peptides. Moreover, the invention also relates to the use of the peptides for preventing and/or treating hypertension and also to the pharmaceutical composition that comprises said peptides.
