Metabolite Identification
Common NameMoexipril
DescriptionMoexipril, also known as uniretic or univasc, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as dipeptides. These are organic compounds containing a sequence of exactly two alpha-amino acids joined by a peptide bond. Moexipril is a drug which is used for the treatment of hypertension. Moexipril is highly lipophilic, and is in the same hydrophobic range as quinapril, benazepril, and ramipril. Blockage of angiotensin II limits hypertension within the vasculature. Moexipril is a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa). In humans, moexipril is involved in moexipril action pathway. Reaction of the product with hydrogen chloride then cleaves the tert-butyl group to give the half acid (3). This blocks the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II.

Enzymes

General function:
Involved in metallopeptidase activity
Specific function:
Converts angiotensin I to angiotensin II by release of the terminal His-Leu, this results in an increase of the vasoconstrictor activity of angiotensin. Also able to inactivate bradykinin, a potent vasodilator. Has also a glycosidase activity which releases GPI-anchored proteins from the membrane by cleaving the mannose linkage in the GPI moiety
Gene Name:
ACE
Uniprot ID:
P12821
Molecular weight:

General function:
Involved in metallopeptidase activity
Specific function:
Carboxypeptidase which converts angiotensin I to angiotensin 1-9, a peptide of unknown function, and angiotensin II to angiotensin 1-7, a vasodilator. Also able to hydrolyze apelin-13 and dynorphin-13 with high efficiency. May be an important regulator of heart function. In case of human coronaviruses SARS and HCoV-NL63 infections, serve as functional receptor for the spike glycoprotein of both coronaviruses.
