do rennin show autocatalysis ?
Answer (1)
Dear Riya,
Renin is a highly specific endopeptidase (an enzyme which breaks peptide bonds other than terminal ones in a peptide chain) Whose only known function is to generate angiotensin I (Ang I) from angiotensinogen (AGT), initiating a cascade of reactions that produces an elevation of blood pressure and increases sodium retention by the kidney.
I hope this information helps you
All the best
