Angiotensin-converting enzyme is a zinc metallopeptidase that plays roles in blood pressure regulation and fertility. The catalytic activities of angiotensin converting enzymes include the production of the potent vasopressor angiotensin H from angiotensin I, and the inactivation of the vasodilatory peptide bradykinin. Zace1 is a new form of human zinc metallopeptidase, which includes one zinc-dependent catalytic domain containing the motif "HEXXH" and one downstream "EX(I/V)X(D/S)" motif.
