Conversion of Angiotensin I to Angiotensin II by cathepsin A isoenzymes of porcine kidney

Miller, James J., Changaris, David G., Levy, Robert S.·1988·Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications

Abstract

We have reported the existence of a carboxypeptidase in a human renal extract that converts Angiotensin I (AI) to Angiotensin II (AII) in two steps with des-leu-AI (dl-AI) being formed as an intermediate. Since this carboxypeptidase had properties similar to cathepsin A, the ability of cathepsin A to metabolize AI was studied. Cathepsin A was purified from hog kidney with enzyme activity being monitored using both benzyloxycarbonyl-glutamyl-tyrosine (ZGT) and AI as substrates. The procedure separated the expected large and small molecular weight forms of cathepsin A as well as two additional isoenzymes. All of the isoenzymes had carboxypeptidase activity with ZGT, AI, and dl-AI. No detectable cleavage of AII was observed. Cathepsin A,S (small) activity with ZGT or AI as substrate was inhibited to a similar extent by diisopropylfluorophosphate, mersalyl acid, and a decapeptide renin inhibitor. It is concluded that the renal angiotensin carboxypeptidase activity is catalyzed by cathepsin A. By its ability to convert AI to AII, cathepsin A may be a component of the intrarenal renin-angiotensin system.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • CTSA is an important member/player of the renin-angiotensin system regulating blood pressure and water balance.

    “The role of CTSA in conversion of angiotensin-I to angiotensin-II suggests that CTSA may be an important player of the renin-angiotensin system regulating blood pressure and water balance (Miller et al., 1988).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
