Gamma-Renin
Gamma-renin (EC 3.4.21.54) is an enzyme.[1][2] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
- Cleavage of the Leu-Leu bond in synthetic renin substrate (horse), to produce angiotensin I, but not active on natural angiotensinogen
This enzyme is present in submandibular glands of male mice.
