Involvement of arginine 878 together with Ca(2+) in mouse aminopeptidase A substrate specificity for N-terminal acidic amino-acid residues
Aminopeptidase A (APA) is a membrane-bound zinc metalloprotease cleaving, in the brain, the N-terminal aspartyl residue of angiotensin II to generate angiotensin III, which exerts a tonic stimulatory effect on the control of blood pressure in hypertensive animals.
