Abstract
Angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE) in renin-angiotensin system is a cause of essential hypertension, which covers most hypertension, one of the major adult diseases. Thus, the inhibition of ACE would be indispensable for the prevention and cure of hypertension. Therefore, a lot of studies on the ACE inhibitor have been conducted. Peptides from the protein hydrolysate have been reported as an remarkable inhibitor. Especially, various ACE inhibitory peptides were isolated and identified from marine products for their utilization as value added products. (omitted)
