Abstract

Various mamalian red cell angiotensinase activities and their apparent Km values were compared. The strongest angiotensinase activity was found in the human red cells. Aminopeptidase activity and the angiotensinase activity not being the same suggested the presence of one other angiotensin inactivating enzyme besides aminopeptidase.
