http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/8761461http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"Drosophila melanogaster angiotensin I-converting enzyme (AnCE) is a secreted single-domain homologue of mammalian angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) which comprises two domains (N and C domains). In order to characterize in detail the enzymic properties of AnCE and to study the influence of glycosylation on the secretion and enzymic activity of this enzyme, we overexpressed AnCE (expression level, 160 mg/l) and an unglycosylated mutant (expression level, 43 mg/l) in the yeast Pichia pastoris. The recombinant enzyme was apparently homogeneous on SDS/PAGE without purification and partial deglycosylation demonstrated that all three potential sites for N-linked glycosylation were occupied by oligosaccharide chains. Each N-glycosylation sequence (Asn-Xaa-Ser/Thr) was disrupted by substituting a glutamine for the asparagine residue at amino acid positions 53, 196 and 311 by site-directed mutagenesis to produce a single mutant. Expression of the unglycosylated mutant in Pichia produced a secreted catalytically active enzyme (AnCE delta CHO). This mutant displayed unaltered kinetics for the hydrolyses of hippuryl-His-Leu, angiotensin 1 and N-acetyl-Ser-Asp-Lys-Pro (AcSDKP) and was equally sensitive to ACE inhibitors compared with wild-type AnCE. However, AnCE delta CHO was less stable, displaying a half-life of 4.94 h at 37 degrees C, compared with AnCE which retained full activity under the same conditions. Two catalytic criteria demonstrate the functional resemblance of AnCE with the human ACE C domain: first, the kcat/Km of AcSDKP hydrolysis and secondly, the kcat/Km and optimal chloride concentration for hippuryl-His-Leu hydrolysis. A range of ACE inhibitors were far less potent towards AnCE compared with the human ACE domains, except for captopril which suggests an alternative structure in AnCE corresponding to the region of the S1 subsite in the human ACE active sites."xsd:string
