Supplementary information

The ECE1 gene encodes for endothelin-converting enzyme 1 also referred to as ECE-1. This enzyme weighs approximately 120 kDa and functions mechanically to convert big endothelins into active endothelins. ECE-1 is present in many tissues with higher expression in the endothelium kidneys and lungs. Through its metalloprotease activity ECE-1 plays a central role in regulating endothelin peptide activation which is important for vasoconstriction and other physiological processes.
Biological function summary

ECE-1 takes part in maintaining vascular homeostasis and blood pressure regulation. It does not function as part of a complex but exerts its effects through the cleavage of specific precursor proteins such as big endothelins. By controlling the conversion of these precursors to active peptidic forms ECE-1 directly influences the vascular tone and endothelial function.

Pathways

ECE-1 impacts the endothelin signaling pathway significantly where it plays a role in converting big endothelin-1 to a potent vasoconstrictor endothelin-1. This pathway involves other proteins like endothelin receptors which mediate the physiological effects of endothelins on smooth muscles and vascular tissues. Additionally ECE-1 interacts with the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) linking it to blood pressure modulation and sodium balance.

ECE-1 is associated with conditions such as hypertension and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Elevated activity or expression levels can contribute to increased vascular resistance leading to heightened blood pressure. Through its role in endothelin signaling ECE-1 also links to proteins like endothelin-1 which are implicated in the pathophysiology of these cardiovascular disorders.
