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.
