Human angiotensin I-converting enzyme gene and endurance performance.

Journal of applied physiology (Bethesda, Md. : 1985) - 1 Oct 1999

Abstract excerpt

Human physical performance is strongly influenced by genetic factors. A variation in the structure of the human angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) gene has been reported in which the insertion (I) variant is associated with lower ACE levels than the deletion (D) gene. We have previously reported that the I variant was associated with improved endurance performance in high-altitude mountaineers and British Army...
