Background
The physiologically active peptide angiotensin-2 (angiotensin 1- 8) is yielded from angiotensin-1, a substrate of ACE (angiotensin converting enzyme), by removing a dipeptide.
Angiotensin 1/2 (1-8) amide (H2N-Asp-Arg-Val-Tyr-Ile-His-Pro-Phe-amide) is a peptide analogue to angiotensin II that is used as a vasopressor agent in the treatment of certain types of shock and circulatory collapse. It is a potent vasoconstrictor and is used as a cardiac stimulant.
