The angiotensin‐converting enzyme (ACE) genetic polymorphism: its relationship with plasma ACE level and myocardial infarction

1 Jul 1994

Abstract excerpt

The angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) is a key factor in the production of angiotensin II and in the degradation of bradykinin, two important peptides involved in vascular physiology. Plasma and cellular ACE levels in humans are influenced by an insertion (I)/deletion (D) polymorphism of the ACE gene, the ACE I/D polymorphism. The D allele has a frequency of approximately 0.53 in Caucasian populations and is...
