ALTERATION OF SPLICING PATTERN ON ANGIOTENSIN CONVERTING ENZYME GENE DUE TO THE INSERTION OF ALU ELEMENTS
2015-05-07
Abstract excerpt
Angiotensin Converting Enzyme ( ACE ) is a zinc metallopeptidase that has a significant role in blood pressure regulation and the pathophysiology of hypertension. ACE has two protein domains, the N-domain and the C-domain, which each has a single active site that functions independently of each other. There is insertion/deletion by 288 bp Alu elements in the intron 16 of ACE gene. The Alu elements potentially alte...
