General annotation (Comments)

Function

Converts angiotensin I to angiotensin II by release of the terminal His-Leu, this results in an increase of the vasoconstrictor activity of angiotensin. Also able to inactivate bradykinin, a potent vasodilator. Has also a glycosidase activity which releases GPI-anchored proteins from the membrane by cleaving the mannose linkage in the GPI moiety. This GPIase activity seems to be crucial for the egg-binding ability of the sperm By similarity.

Catalytic activity

Release of a C-terminal dipeptide, oligopeptide-|-Xaa-Yaa, when Xaa is not Pro, and Yaa is neither Asp nor Glu. Thus, conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II, with increase in vasoconstrictor activity, but no action on angiotensin II.

Cofactor

Binds 2 zinc ions per subunit. Isoform Testis-specific only binds 1 zinc ion per subunit By similarity.

Binds 3 chloride ions per subunit By similarity.

Subcellular location

Angiotensin-converting enzyme, soluble form: Secreted By similarity.

Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein By similarity.

Tissue specificity

Testis-specific isoform is expressed in spermatocytes, adult testis. Also expressed in brain, kidney, lung, skeletal muscle and heart. Ref.3

Induction

Up-regulated after myocardial infarction. Ref.6

Post-translational modification

Phosphorylated by CK2 on Ser-1306; which allows membrane retention By similarity.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the peptidase M2 family.
