1 | The effects of peptide inhibitors (bestatin and amastatin) and divalent cations (Ca2+ and Co2+) on the velocity of Asp1 liberation from angiotensin II (A-II) by human placental membrane fractions and binding of 125I A-II to human placental membranes were tested at 22 degrees C and 4 degrees C. Asp1 liberation was measured by high performance liquid chromatography. | amastatin | beta-secretase 2 | Homo sapiens |
2 | As expected, the degradation and binding of A-II were temperature sensitive, with both being at 4 degrees C than at 22 degrees C. While amastatin (10(-4) M) and bestatin 10(-6) M) significantly reduced the velocity of Asp1 liberation from A-II to about 45%, amastatin (10(-4) M) and bestatin (10(-4) M) increased 125I A-II binding to 125% and 130%, respectively. | amastatin | beta-secretase 2 | Homo sapiens |
