Human ACE (angiotensin-converting enzyme) (EC 3.4.15.1) is an important drug target because of its role in the regulation of blood pressure via the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. Somatic ACE comprises two homologous domains, the differing substrate preferences of which present a new avenue for domain-selective inhibitor design. We have co-crystallized lisW-S, a C-domain-selective derivative of the drug lisinopril, with human testis ACE and determined a structure using X-ray…

Novel mechanism of inhibition of human angiotensin-I-converting enzyme (ACE) by a highly specific phosphinic tripeptide

The first structures of testis ACE and the N-domain of somatic ACE are shown and unique features of the binding of two molecules of the dual inhibitor in the active site of C-ACE are highlighted, which could be further utilized for structure-based design of new C- ACE or vasopeptidase inhibitors.

Advances in Structural Biology of ACE and Development of Domain Selective ACE-inhibitors.

Reports of crystal complexes of inhibitors in the C- and N-domains revealed that most selective inhibitors interact with non-conserved amino-acids between domains and have distinct interactions with the residues in the S2 and S2 subsites of the ACE catalytic site.

New ketomethylene inhibitor analogues: synthesis and assessment of structural determinants for N-domain selective inhibition of angiotensin-converting enzyme

This study emphasizes the importance of P2 functionalities in allowing for improved N-selective binding and provides further rationale for the design of N- selective inhibitors, which could be useful in treating tissue fibrosis.

C domain-selective inhibition of angiotensin-converting enzyme

Several substrates are predominantly cleaved by the N domain under in vitro conditions, including the tetrapeptide N-acetyl-seryl-aspartyl-lysyl-proline (AcSDKP), GnRH and the amyloid-β peptide.

Crystal structures of highly specific phosphinic tripeptide enantiomers in complex with the angiotensin‐I converting enzyme

The new structures of the ACE–inhibitor complexes presented here provide useful information for further exploration of ACE inhibitor pharmacophores involving phosphinic peptides and illustrate the role of chirality in enhancing drug specificity.

Peptide inhibitors of angiotensin-I converting enzyme based on angiotensin (1-7) with selectivity for the C-terminal domain.

Findings from synthetized 15 derivatives of Ang (1-7), sequentially removing the N-terminal amino acids and modifying peptides extremities, to find molecules with improved selectivity and inhibition properties support ongoing studies using insights from the binding of Ac-Ang (2-7)-NH2 to develop effective cACE inhibitors.

Considerations for Docking of Selective Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitors

This review examined the most recent literature reporting ACE inhibitors with the help of molecular modeling and demonstrated that molecular modeling methods, including docking, molecular dynamics simulations, quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR), etc, are essential for a complete structural picture of the mode of action of ACE inhibitors.

The characterization of the extended active site and the binding of a potent C-domain-selective inhibitor provide the first structural data for the design of truly domain-specific pharmacophores.

Crystal structure of the human angiotensin-converting enzyme–lisinopril complex

Three-dimensional analysis of the three-dimensional structure of human testicular ACE shows that it bears little similarity to that of carboxypeptidase A, but instead resembles neurolysin and Pyrococcus furiosus carboxy-zinc metallopeptidases with no detectable sequence similarity to ACE.

Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme C-Terminal Catalytic Domain Is the Main Site of Angiotensin I Cleavage In Vivo

It is shown that the C-domain of ACE is the predominant site of angiotensin I cleavage in vivo, and although mice lacking C- domain activity have normal physiology under laboratory conditions, they respond less well to the stress of dehydration.

D determinations indicated that the introduction of a bulky aromatic tryptophan at the P2′ position of keto-ACE significantly increased selectivity for the C-domain, while an aliphatic P2 Boc group conferred N-domain selectivity.
